The new book by Elena Minkina-Teicher, already known to readers from the novels “The Rebinder Effect” and “Where Milk and Honey Flows,” includes six stories - six human stories, completely different in time and style of writing, the heroines of which are a young businesswoman and a wise old woman, a young emigrant of the 21st century and a girl from the times of the Great Patriotic War, a factory foreman of the fifties and a doctor-researcher from the future - each with her own difficult fate, each a huge separate world. And all are united by the light pen and love of the author.
