Cynics

Moscow, 1918-1924. The terrible inside out of the construction of the "New World" is terror, arbitrariness, devastation, hunger ...
But how can the hardships of life interfere with love? Vladimir is passionately and without looking back in love with the cynical by nature Olga. Alas, this world is not created for gentle souls, and the young man with all his might seeks to show himself a cynic that never hurts and no one sorry.
The history of the tragically exiled and shameless-nematic relations of two young people who are at the breakdown of eras, betrayal, longing, hopelessness and loneliness-all this is described piercingly, sad and honestly.
Anatoly Mariengof (1897-1962)-poet, prose writer, playwright, prominent figure of literary bohemia of the 20s of the XX century
