Iskrennie, beskhitrostno dobrye i chutʹ naivnye, poroĭ - smeshnye, vsegda - s dushoĭ naraspashku. Oni veri͡at v chudo i ishchut schastʹe, zhivut samui͡u obychnui͡u povsednevnui͡u zhiznʹ russkoĭ provint͡sialʹnoĭ ulochki - no postoi͡anno popadai͡ut v udivitelʹnye, skazochnye, neobychaĭnye istorii i situat͡sii.…I li͡ubovʹ - sbyvaetsi͡a, i schastʹe - nakhoditsi͡a, i chudesa - sluchai͡utsi͡a. A kak inache? Ėto zhe Rybat͡skai͡a, tut vozmozhno - vsë, dazhe samoe neveroi͡atnoe."Geroi Kubrina - takie, chto li, blazhennye. Zhivushchie vo blago, Gospodnego blaga posredi.

Nasha strana - ėto bolʹshai͡a ulit͡sa Rybat͡skai͡a, gde, konechno, sluchaetsi͡a raznoe, no ulit͡sa ėta, razukhabistai͡a i trogatelʹnai͡a, dyshit podlinnoĭ vzaimovyruchkoĭ i zhiteĭskoĭ mudrostʹi͡u, a eë zhiteli - nedotëpistye, slavnye i beskonechno chelovechnye".Ivan Rodionov, literaturnyĭ kritik"Esli ty ros v malenʹkom gorode, i lʹvinai͡a doli͡a tvoego detstva prishlasʹ na 90-e - tebe ponravitsi͡a ėta kniga.S neveroi͡atnoĭ teplotoĭ avtor opisyvaet zhiznʹ svoikh chudakovatykh soplemennikov, prinimai͡a ikh takimi, kakie estʹ.Rodnoe, prostoe, russkoe, nastoi͡ashchee".Branimir, muzykant

Sergey Kubrin is a writer, author of the book "Guilty are Beaten", winner of the Lyceum Award.Shukshin's "weirdos," characters who seem to have stepped out of Vladimir Lyubarov's paintings, are the heroes of Kubrin's new book, the inhabitants of Rybatskaya Street. Sincere, guilelessly kind and a little naive, sometimes funny, always with their hearts wide open. They believe in miracles and seek happiness, living the most ordinary everyday life of a Russian provincial street — but constantly find themselves in amazing, fabulous, extraordinary stories and situations....And love comes true, and happiness is found, and miracles happen. But how else? This is a Fishing village, everything is possible here, even the most improbable."Kubrin's heroes are so blissful. Those who live for the good, the Lord's good in the midst. But since it's too much to call them blissful, Kubrin calls them just fools.They look like ordinary Russian men, and they drink a lot and hit on a good woman, but they seem to be suspended between earth and sky: they hover in light weightlessness."Zakhar Prilepin, writer"For some reason, it is believed that non—magical Russia is some kind of terrible, chthonic… That's not so. Our country is a large Rybatskaya street, where, of course, different things happen, but this street, rollicking and touching, breathes genuine mutual assistance and worldly wisdom, and its inhabitants are incompetent, glorious and infinitely humane."Ivan Rodionov, literary critic"If you grew up in a small town and the lion's share of your childhood was in the 90s, you will love this book.With incredible warmth, the author describes the lives of his eccentric tribesmen, accepting them as they are.Native, simple, Russian, real."Branimir, musician
