Emigration is an old phenomenon that experienced the peak of poetization during the First World War and was strongly romanticized thanks to Vasily Kandinsky, Ivan Bunin and Fyodor Chaliapin.People always leave their homeland for a reason — this is a huge test for character, a certain scrapping and a shift of fate, a challenge that a person throws both to himself and to the world. The largest artists of the beginning of the last century and modern times went through emigration, and Dina Rubin, whose work became the unconditional tuning fork of Russian literature at the end of the century, did not pass it.In this book, the author has specially collected stories, one way or another related to the theme of finding a new land and abandoning the old land. There is humor, sadness, irony, and compassion in them, embracing everyone with whom this has just happened or who is about to do it.The experience of emigration cannot be universal, and at the same time it — transmitted from a great artist — has the property of helping and supporting.That's why this book was invented.
