Alexander Kabakov (1943-2020) was a prose writer, journalist, playwright, and the author of the acclaimed "The One Who Didn't Return," the elegant "The Fugitive," the ironic "Moscow Tales," and other works. Films have been made based on Kabakov's novels, and his books have been translated into many countries around the world. The novel "Everything Can Be Fixed. Chronicles of a Private Life" was awarded the "Big Book" prize. The life of the protagonist of the novel "Everything Can Be Fixed," Mikhail Saltykov, is the life of a whole generation against the backdrop of half a century of history. With extraordinary attention to the details of the bygone era, Saltykov recalls his childhood in a military town in the 1950s, the basics of clowning and jazz in the 1960s, the stilyagi youth and maturity that fell during the years of perestroika. Here you can find love affairs, betrayals by loved ones, informants, a missing treasure, and money that disappeared without a trace. "In this novel, there is so much love for the flawed, futile person, so much respect for the clumsiness of our earthly path, that you truly begin to believe in the fixability of life." - Sergey Shargunov.
