As you know, it is impossible to catch a moment, just as it is impossible to catch an epoch (Daniil Ivanovich Kharms). But every now and then we try to do this with the help of movies, songs, music, performances or stories. This book is another attempt to capture and capture the moment. Three novels, three stories, simple, ordinary, small people, whose youth and youth fell in the 90s. Here are some reviews from the first readers: "I couldn't tear myself away! To be honest, I hardly read modern Russian prose at all. Maybe someone from the last decades is trying to make sense of something, but I have not met it. And here it turned out noticeably - to the color, sound and smell." "The psychological thread is thin - a knowledgeable person will understand, but who is not in the subject will still catch on." "It turns out to be an excellent portrait of people of our generation. Lively and interesting." Vita Malygina, a practicing psychologist, clinical psychologist, psychodramatotherapist, in a previous life – a journalist and editor. It's a good combination if you like to listen to other people's stories and come up with your own. Four years ago, I wrote a psychological book "Forever losing weight" about the problems of people with RPP and dysmorphic disorder (this is when you treat your appearance very badly and can't see your photos). The book is based on stories, in fact stories, invented by the author to better highlight the problem and its causes. The book that you are holding in your hands right now is also three human stories, three stories about little people who got into the wheel of history, each in their own way. The heroes are united only by their age and the time in which they happened to grow up and build their lives: the 90s of the last century and the beginning of the current century. "I wrote these three stories about my peers back in the 21st year, but I still couldn't finish, I didn't understand how. In 2022, I mentally closed this story. It completely lost its meaning for me when the war in Ukraine began," the author says. — But some more time passed and suddenly, in one week, I finished the book. It seemed to me that now was the right time for her."
