– Thank you from the bottom of my heart, doctor, for not being afraid to give me an abortion nineteen years ago. Thank you... - And the woman bows from the waist... This is from the “last word” of the defendant chief physician Konkin. The woman thanked the doctor for the fact that she, like her fellow villager, did not give birth to a son nineteen years ago. Because they took nineteen-year-old boys from their village to go to war in Afghanistan, and there they were killed and brutally mutilated. “The Book of Last Words” is a terrible book. Terrible by its ordinariness, the ordinariness of the stories described in it. Ordinary for a country that called itself the most peaceful, the kindest. In this country, the norm was spying on each other, eavesdropping and informing. Provocateurs, murderers are ideological communists. In this country, it is a crime to repair shoes, to use advanced technologies for raising livestock. In this country, so that people do not run away from it, they keep special dogs that, if anything happens, will bite to death. And these dogs are fed better than people. Thirty-five crimes are described in the “Book of Last Words.” And every criminal is given the last word in court. As in an Indian film, the author allows his characters to express everything to the end, to dot all the i's. And these heroes, with childlike spontaneity, describe before us scenes from the theater of the absurd. The theater, which for more than seventy years was called the Soviet Union...

"I experienced a moment of complete pleasure, which can only be understood by those who know how to go beyond hatred - where laughter reigns." Romain Gary.
