Love conquers not only partings and death, but even betrayal, resentment and hatred... The heroes of the new collection by Victoria Tokareva come to the realization of this through inevitable human suffering and contradictory twists of fate. Something elusive and all-forgiving suddenly turns out to be stronger than a person’s passions. And no one judges anyone anymore, everyone has their own clashes with themselves and the world, their own searches through mistakes. “Pushkin’s calm” - this is what one can say about Victoria Tokareva’s prose. Her works console, help to see life as something unsolved.
