Stephen Vincent Bene is a classic of American literature, flesh from the flesh of that brightest generation that Fitzgerald, Hemingway and Faulkner gave us. As a master of paradoxical and ironic novel, he undoubtedly inherits O. Henry, often uses historical, folklore and fantastic plots. The distant or recent past appears in his revitalized kingdom of fantasy.
The plots of ancient mythology are played on the American frontier, Dr. Melhorn continues his medical practice in the underworld, the leader of the great power sends the damned people to the last baby, and the last Roman legion leaves the British Isles, to the horror of the colonists ...
The story "Crying wives", which opens the collection, served as the basis for the famous kinuzik, Stanley Donen "Seven Brides for the Seven Brothers", nominated for five Oscars and received one.
All works are published in Russian for the first time (with the exception of one story presented in a new translation)
