Saharniy Kreml (In Russian)

Description: The sugary, white Kremlin is the heart of Russia in the 2020s, which survived the Red, Gray and White Time of Troubles, closed off from the outside world and plunged into sleep. Everyone owns this heart little by little, because the cowgirl, the convict, and the Lilliputian have at least a fragment of his refined copy, but in fact it does not belong to anyone. Fifteen short stories from the collection "Sugar Kremlin", written as if in completely different ways and about different things, form a picture of a ghostly, doomed reality, soaking like a sugar tower in tea.
For the first time, the collection of stories "Sugar Kremlin" was published in 2008. Together with the story "The Day of the Oprichnik" he was nominated for the "Big Book" award; in 2009 he received the audience award of the "NOS" award.
