White square

The collection includes nine stories of recent years, many of which are published for the first time. The young man finds out that an invisible red pyramid is working in the center of Moscow, which emits a mysterious red roar. The girl is trying to cope with an unpleasant and shameful ailment - she creaks while walking. The young man decides to conquer the heart of his beloved with the help of poetry, not suspecting what a shocking discovery he will soon make. Retelling the plot of these stories is an ungrateful business. Sorokin constantly changes the plot, stylistics and even the genre itself, so you never know what awaits you on the next page. A caustic, satirical, accurate, as always in Sorokin, a stylistically impeccable look at the present, where the high is adjacent to low, funny with the tragic, and the myth is so closely intertwined with reality that they can no longer be distinguished
