The author of the "Drawing Textbook" and "Red Light", Maxim Kantor, painted a new portrait of society. This is a portrait of a madman - crowds in the squares, a split into liberals and patriots, a division into the intelligentsia and the people. That's how it was a hundred years ago, that's how it was twenty years ago. Why again? Performance or real story? What kind of freedom are we sheep fighting for? Maxim Kantor dedicated the book to his children: “You should know how it was when the intelligentsia abandoned their people. Learn to always take the side of the weak and not bow to anyone." This book is a manifesto of free consciousness.

written at the Gotthard Pass in reflection on the exploits of Suvorov and the fate of the Fatherland
