Special edition for the release of the series.
Mikhail Elizarov is a prose writer, musician, author of the novels "Earth" (National Bestseller Award), "Pasternak" and "Cartoons", collections "Nails" (shortlisted for the Andrei Bely Prize), "We Went Out to Smoke for 17 Years" (Reader's Choice Award "NOS"), "Burattini", "Shells. Cubes".
"The Librarian" is a novel that won the Russian Booker Prize and sparked scandals and discussions in society, a novel about sacred texts - but without Borges and Eco's "bookish dust": books here are used for their direct archetypal purpose - encased in metal, they crush weak skull boxes, break destinies, call to the bonfire, and invade the fabric of creation.
...the most boring industrial novels of the long-forgotten Soviet writer Gromov, years after his death, are found to possess magical properties: each is capable of endowing the reader with supernatural abilities. It is not only the text that matters, but also the typographic ink and paper, several sects of bibliophiles hunt for rarities, and the right to read the Book must be fought for with an axe in hand...
