This is the narrative of the surprising time when the trees were large, and the prices in stores were small when the book was the main gift, and sausage was the main deficit, when no one came off the team, and the world was known on TV. Readers learn about how Muscovites worked and rested in those years, what they spent a pay and what they saved, how they survived in communal services and stood in lines for groceries (prices are attached), what theaters and art exhibitions visited and how they got jeans and boots Where in Moscow there were a lighthouse and a gun and whom they called the "Nikitsky Gate". And readers will learn to recognize the speech of that era thanks to the dictionary of Moscow life, kindly composed by the author - a famous historian and writer Alexander Vaskin.
The book is written with the involvement of a large number of evidence of eyewitnesses, memoirs and diaries
