Taina na dne kolodtsa (il. V. Kanivtsa) - Nosov Nikolai Nikolaevich

Family legend allows the author to string stories from his childhood and youth on a thread of "mystery at the bottom of the well." What riddle does the well keep near the old house? Maybe gold and treasure? Or maybe happiness and affection? Funny and instructive episodes of nikolai Nosov's autobiographical novel will later move into his stories, novels and fairy tales, and the subtly conveyed atmosphere of that time will serve as a bridge between several generations of readers.
