The author is the hieromonk of the Russian Orthodox Church, serving in a crowded parish in the very center of Moscow, by birth of Italian and by secular education - literary critic and historian. The book is his verbal portrait. It included a variety of texts about faith, suffering and the meaning of being, about Orthodoxy in the modern world and the church in post -Soviet Russia, about the historical disputes of Catholics and Orthodox and conflicts of Russia and the West. At the same time, the author talks a lot about Italian and Russian literature, cinema, art, world history and culture. The book is very important in the book, the angle of observation of the author: thanks to the originality of the life path of the Italian Orthodox hieromonk and his erudition, we are like an extraordinary opportunity to look at Orthodoxy and Russia simultaneously from the outside and from the inside. The book will be interesting to the widest circle of readers
