Noch' ... Zapiataia .. Noch' .. - Makanin Vladimir Semenovich

"Night... Comma... Night..." - a collection of stories and stories written in different years - allows you to look at V.S. Makanin as a writer, going against all: with the sixties, villagers, authors of urban prose. He does not look like anyone, from all "behind", separate from all ("Leftbehind"). He is concerned about such problems, which begin to be understood by us as problems only after Makanin designates them: about the ruinous state of the "gap" when a person cannot make a choice ("Loss"), about the inability of beauty to save the world from war and cruelty ("Caucasian prisoner"), about the inseparation of man from evil ("Last Camp").
