- Interesting book?
- Why don't you try opening it randomly, on any page...
- About what? About how we came to this world - to share light. About coincidences. About how much in life aligns... How to overcome oneself. About getting closer to nature. About living amidst wonders...
Everyone writes their own life like a book. Within the bounds of reality. And beyond...
However, in this case - not a drop of fiction: non-fiction, as it's fashionable to say now.
This time, Moscow writer, geologist, author of romantic novellas and essays on calendar coincidences Leonid Volkov offers you lyrical memories... a journey through life. With him, you will embark on geological expeditions... find yourself in Yakutia and Evenkia, in the Khabarovsk and Primorsky regions, on Sakhalin and Mangyshlak... you will fall in love, suffer, swim in ice holes. In general, - to be relevant in the realities of our time.
The journey begins with childhood memories.
'From a blank page we create a new world: you - with words, I - with drawings. And this is a miracle, because in our power - to fill the world with light, romance, Beauty...' - illustrator Oksana Heylik addresses the author of his books, referring to the birth of a book as a living organism.
The book consists of three parts: childhood and youth memories are followed by mature lyrical sketches, diary entries - with immersions into nature - records, after which - travel essays: to the Caucasus, Crimea, Jordan... And all this - with excursions from the past, with aphorisms and excerpts from the author's previous books.
In short, read it! And also look at life-affirming photographs! Traditionally, the artistic text in the book is organically complemented by the author's extensive photo insert and illustrations by artist Oksana Heylik.
2nd edition, revised and expanded.
