The last May days of 1936, the height of repression. The officer conspiracy against Chopur (Stalin) and the Soviet-Polish war (1919-1921), whose events pass through the whole novel.
Trotskyist Efim Milkin runs from the Chekists in Baku with the help of a former civil wife, actress and film director Margarita Barsky. In the city of Vetrov, he accidentally meets a Moscow friend, a correspondent of the newspaper "Pravda", who is also hidden in Baku. A friend invites Efim to his Saturday meal and he falls in love with his younger sister. The feast quietly passes to the balcony of house 20/67 The angle of the second parallel. All night, Efim tells young people a story from the life of the regimental commissioner Efimych.
Will the talented writer and filmmaker be able to avoid the persecution of the Chekists and add a novel or traitor, whom Efim has not been able to calculate, has already reached his trail?
"Babelon steamer" is an alloy of family chronicles and a historical detective with a political background in which it is difficult to distinguish fiction from the truth, a historical fact from the author’s imagination. The fates of the heroes of the novel are similar to the fate of many of our compatriots who were on the symbolic ship "Babelon" in the first half of the twentieth century
