Dmitry Danilov is a playwright ("Seryozha is Very Stupid"), prose writer ("Horizontal Position"), and poet. He is a laureate of the "Yasnaya Polyana" and "Moscow Art Prize" (for the novel "Sasha, Hello!"), as well as the "Golden Mask" (for the play "The Man from Podolsk").
"Empty Trains of 2022" is a series of essays about travels by train, where reflections on Russian everyday life are interspersed with portraits of fellow travelers and the writer's own stories. The leisurely contemplation of ordinary things in an attempt to see something greater behind them is the quintessence of Danilov's style.
"Dmitry Danilov gives the impression of a person who has just gotten up from the couch for a short time, only to quickly return to it. In short, he is a classic Oblomov... So, when it turned out that he has an unusual hobby - traveling on small trains along remote railway branches, I was not surprised. Some call it 'meditative tourism.' But when a writer engages in this, there is a short circuit and a spark." - Pavel Basinsky
"It was good when most passengers dispersed, when there were nameless stations and desolation. It was good when the passenger opposite suddenly said 'have a safe journey.' And everything else too, if you think about it, was good."
