Roman "History of one city" M.E. Saltykova -Shchedrin is an unsurpassed parody of Russian reality, which has not lost relevance to this day. The author gave his work the form of the chronicle of the fictional city of Glupov, the list of its mayors contains hints of many historical personalities of the XVIII-XIX centuries. Contemporaries of Saltykov-Shchedrin evaluated the "history of one city" as a satire on the Karamzinsky "history of the Russian state".
Historical reality in the book is intertwined with science fiction, the novel is full of grotesque and bright humor. "Eternal" themes, relevant plots, typical portraits of officials make it one of the most readable works of the classic of Russian literature and in the 21st century.
This gift edition is perfectly illustrated by the artist Alexei Barinov, who managed to very accurately convey the atmosphere and satirical orientation of the work. The book will take a worthy place in your book collection or will be a great gift
