“Rogneda sits by the window and watches how wavy clouds float across the evening sky - here is a tiger with an open mouth, there is a monster that looks like an elephant, and here are white sheep running away from them in fear. But there are not only animals in the evening sky, there are also castles with towers, and pinkish seas, and radiant rocks. Rogneda’s memory is alarmed. Bright fields are resurrected, green hills rise, and the white walls of a knight's castle grow on the hills... All this happened a long time ago, in a dear childhood... Then Rogneda lived in another country, in a red house, covered with tiles, near a beautiful lake stretched in front of the castle. And on this lake lived swans, black as agate... Rogneda never met such birds again..." The collection of the little-known Russian writer Boris Alekseevich Verkhoustinsky included a story and stories from different years: • Devastated Gardens (published in 1914). • Okazia ( diss. 1915).• Meeting of an anarchist with Christ (diss. 1917).
