A satirical novel by Arthur Solomonov about the adventures of a talking raccoon and his friend Nathan Eipelbaum. Reviews from the first readers: Andrei Makarevich: In recent years, the thought has not left me - how to write about today? Allegories and allegories smell of the last century, but I don’t want to slip into journalism. But this is exactly how it should be written! Igor Irtenev: This book is one of those that is re-read. I envy those who read it for the first time. Alexander Filippenko: Tragifarce is such a complex genre, my favorite genre, and through it Arthur brilliantly shows modernity. The novel is valuable for its relevance and will remain a reflection of the era. Olga Romanova: Dear Nathan! I don’t quite understand why you started this experiment with our homeland, but let’s finish it. If you yourself do not want to lead us and let us breathe the air of freedom, could you entrust this mission to your respected raccoon? The hour has struck. Only raccoon, only victory. With trepidation and respect to you, O. Romanova
