The main characters of the collection “Tales” are schoolchildren, students, boys and girls living in villages and regional cities. They are, in fact, still on the threshold of adulthood. Different in the well-being and status of their parents, naive maximalists and young cynics, self-confident and emotional, they often find themselves in difficult life situations. The motivations for their actions are often falling in love, self-affirmation as individuals, and responses to misunderstandings from parents and other adults.
