“The Philosopher's Apprentice” is a landmark tragicomedy by an outstanding British writer, a recognized master of subtle psychology. Life in the resort town of Anniston quietly revolves around baths and healing springs. It’s quiet until its most famous native, philosophy professor John Robert Rozanov, returns to the city, looking for a decent gentleman for his beautiful granddaughter. And his once beloved student, who long ago exchanged philosophy first for art history, and then for drunken brawls and promiscuous sexual intercourse, is trying to understand whether he really wanted to drown his legal wife on a rainy night, or whether he just imagined it... For the first time in Russian!
