The “Favorites” of the writer, philosopher and publicist Mikhail Dmitrievich Puzyrev (10/26/1915-11/16/2009) included both previously published and previously unpublished texts. The first part of the collection contains the work “And the bun rolled…”, the second consists of journalistic works created at the turn of the 20th–21st centuries, and the third includes philosophical, historical, philosophical and literary works. The author's work is so holistic that it is very difficult to divide it into separate genres. His experience is unique. The story of his life is the history of our Fatherland in the 20th century.
