Young, sensitive women and powerful elderly ladies, accustomed to controlling others' lives with the iron grip of experienced commanders. Cunning and agile schemers, playing a subtle game for a sweet piece, and strong, aggressive businessmen with steel jaws, sweeping everything in their path towards success and profit. Actresses, like fish swimming in the world of backstage intrigues, and their patrons, for whom a connection with a 'stage star' is a prestigious indicator of wealth and power. Bold young intellectuals, intoxicatedly playing in cynicism and hatred towards the whole world, and supporters of the 'theory of small deeds', calmly resisting universal greed and hypocrisy, bribery and corruption... These are the characters of Ostrovsky in the plays included in this collection. The images, both dramatic and comedic, were created by him a long time ago, but even now they are still completely recognizable and remain relevant.
