The first edition of this book about modern monasticism in Russia was anonymous. Even when everyone found out, seeing the cover of the second edition, who was the author of the “crying of the Third Bird”, the passions did not subside. The book was written by the abbess of the current monastery of the Russian Orthodox Church of the Moscow Patriarchate, who knows about monasticism so much that she always has something to say about irony or pain, and what to say silence. This is an honest, meaningful, piercing and frank book about monks and monasteries, written from the inside by a man who survived the revival of monasticism in Russia. The strength of the testimony of the abbess of Theophyla is in constant appeal to a prayer hearth, to the spiritual height and the secret beauty of genuine monasticism. The third edition is supplemented by the preface by Olesya Nikolaeva and a section with practical recommendations for the gathered to visit the monastery with certain goals
