Alexey Alekhin - poet, critic, prose writer. "Bare Eyes" is a very diverse book. And genre - from a fleeting sketch to a psychological novel. And spatially - half the world is involved in it, from the Russian and Central Asian hinterlands to New York and China. And in time - from the 30s of the last century to the present day. Plunging into this world woven from the finest details and full of paradoxes, the reader makes a journey that is as real as it is fantastic.
