Victoria Tokareva is a well-known writer and screenwriter, familiar to Russian viewers for beloved childhood films such as "Literature Lesson," "Gentlemen of Fortune," "Mimino," "A Dog Walked on the Piano," "You Exist...". Stories and novellas hold a special place in Tokareva's work, warm and lively, with a gentle sense of humor, written in her unique, light, "Tokarevian" language. With likable characters who sometimes remind us of ourselves. "Victoria Tokareva looks at the world as if no other eyes have seen it yet, as if she has been given the opportunity to discover the nature and essence of things for the first time... she re-discovers the world around us," wrote Yuri Nagibin. "Pushkin's tranquility" - that's how one can describe Victoria Tokareva's prose, which comforts and helps us accept life as it is, in all its fullness, complexity, and fragile charm.
