There will be many stories in this book - funny, scary, ridiculous and different. This all happened at the very beginning of the 2000s, with different people with whom fate brought me into contact. I heard some of this, saw some of it, took part in some of it personally. I can probably write about thirty percent of what I could, but there are reasons not to trust much of the public press, although the time will come for this material. For petty and harmful readers, I will immediately explain that, firstly, one cannot equate the author with the lyrical hero. When I write about myself, I write in the first person, everything else can be anything. Secondly, I deliberately change some details of the story, and I can be very free with the characters in my stories. Any interference with the realism of the story is not accidental: if it’s written that way, then it’s meant to be that way. To even more petty people, who are inclined to personally accuse me of certain atrocities, extremism and fascism, let me remind you that I have always been small, weak and intelligent, and did not want and could not take part in the events described
