Old girl

The novels of the writer and historian Vladimir Sharov create their historical reality.
The action of the "old girl" is classified as the Stalin"s time, and Joseph Vissarionovich himself plays a rather large role in the life of the main character. The plot of "old girl" is truly phantasmagoric.
Vera joy, the main character of the novel, having lost a lot in the Stalinist reality, turns his life back and returns to its origins. The diary entries that she made day after day since childhood help her to return to the past.
In 2014, Vladimir Sharov became the laureate of the Russian Bouquer, "Student Booker" and "Big Book", and in 2015 - the prize "Writer of the Year".

Life is a wonderful thing, and if something else remains of it ... I am an enthusiastic connoisseur of diaries, memories, letters ... Family history - this is the level that attracts me. And especially the story of the relations of people "small", invisible. There are many loud names and events in my prose, but I like people who have never managed someone else"s life.
