“Gariki” are quatrains about life and people, once invented by the poet, writer and simply interesting person Igor Guberman. They walked around the country for a long time, passed on from mouth to mouth, almost like folk art, until they turned into books... “Gariks from Atlantis” is a samizdat part of “Gariks” that was lost for many years and was recently discovered by the author. And the author also decided that It's time to write a book of memories. And so “Elderly Notes” was born - witty and honest, like all of Igor Guberman’s prose.
