You opened the book from this side. However, do not think that it all belongs to one author - Vladimir Brovkin. Turn it over and see: it also contains stories by Vladimir Titov. Vladimir Brovkin wrote his stories a long time ago, in the seventies, when, as we know, it was difficult to tell the truth about reality. That's why he turned to science fiction. In Brovkin’s stories, the “heroes” of recent decades are easily recognizable. Even in science fiction stories, signs of our days are visible. V. Titov's manner is distinguished by irony and gentle humor.

This book has two beginnings and two authors - a kind of inversion. Turn it over and you will see that on the other side of the binding there is a different author - Vladimir Brovkin. Vladimir Titov, who wrote the proposed selection of science fiction stories, is a professional journalist who has already published things in collective collections in Novosibirsk and Moscow, in periodicals. Titov's science fiction is not only about space and travel to unknown worlds, it is also an attempt to see and understand our modern world more broadly.
