"You don't always understand what tears are in your eyes — from laughter or from empathy."Galina Yuzefovich Pavel Selukov was born in 1986 on the outskirts of Perm. Ran away from kindergarten, changed two schools and five classes, graduated from college. At the age of thirty he began to write. Now the author of several collections of short stories, the winner of the prize. Kataeva and the finalist of the "Big Book".'To Get Tarkovsky' is 'unintelligent stories' about Permian life of the nineties and noughties. The heroes of the book are marginals and difficult teenagers, they are also romantics and philosophers. And among them on equal terms Dostoevsky, Vonnegut, Hemingway, Dovlatov, Brodsky…"To drown out the crunching of the bones of either the heroes, or the ever-repeating Russian matrix, the author abundantly uses irony and self-irony, which, fortunately, almost does not distract from the masterfully and dizzyingly constructed plots."Evgenia Nekrasova
