Brief annotation
"Pocket Book for those coming to Moscow for the winter..." is a re-release in the modern spelling of a unique book, published in 1791 (the world has preserved single copies of the original). The book, created by a talented Russian satirist writer, journalist, translator and ethnographer Nikolai Strakhov, is a unique historical document that describes the life and manners of Moscow during the time of Catherine II. If you believe that the capital's fashion for barbershops, limousines and conspicuous expensive purchases - a hallmark of our time, then deeply mistaken. You will be surprised how many funny coincidences with the current realities, how many similarities with the near-secular society of Moscow of the 21st century. Despite the fact that it has been two and a quarter of a century, the sarcasm of the author is absolutely modern, the advice is relevant, and the characters are realistic. For greater completeness of the perception of the text, we illustrated the book with reproductions of 18th-century prints, mostly caricatures depicting the same fashionistas and fashionistas, flaunts and helipads.
