Arkady Averchenko’s contemporaries called him “The King of Laughter” and “The Knight of Smiles.” The writer’s prose was very popular during the author’s lifetime. Despite the fact that A. Averchenko took an anti-monarchist position, believing that before the revolution “all of Russia was sick” and accepted the February Revolution, he considered the October Revolution of 1917 to be destroying traditions, leading to civil war, the destruction of the connection of times, denying national and patriotic ideas. But the merciless truth does not stop the healthy laughter of the writer, involving the reader in the action of masks and carnival disguises. His heroes abandoned the people's truth, accepting the official one. In his satirical, extremely sharp, not without tragedy stories, the writer warns about the serious danger that a prolonged masquerade leads to, when evil spirits, summoned to a national holiday, replace real faces and good friends from old fairy tales.
