On the pages of this volume, the Naboka lecturer gives its audience an excellent lesson "close reading" works of Gogol, Turgenev, Dostoevsky, Tolstoy, Chekhov and Gorky - reading, whose method is exhaustively described by the author himself: "Literature, real literature, should not be swallowed by a volley, as Drug, useful for the heart or mind, this "stomach" of the soul. The literature should be taken with small doses, cutting, recking, grinding, - Then you will feel her sweet fragrance in the depths of the palms, it needs to be discharged, with pleasure rolling up the language in the mouth, - then, and only then you will appreciate its rare aroma and fragmented Grinding particles will again connect together in your consciousness and acquire the beauty of the whole to which you mix a bit of own blood "
