Sergey Shargunov – writer, author of a biography of V.P. Kataeva in the series “ZhZL”, novels “1993”, “Book without photographs”, “Hurray!”, “Baby Punished”, “Bird Flu”. Winner of the "Big Book" award, finalist of the "National Bestseller" award. The new collection "Own" is very personal prose. About family, about love, about memory. About the Russian hinterland and distant foreign lands. Your own - images, thoughts, people. From the author's famous ancestors to his little son. From an extra from a television crowd to a loner guarding the runway in the taiga. And even the arrogant fat man deputy and the timid North Korean waitress. Everything is ours. Because I feel sorry for everyone.
