About the book: 1976 / Evgeny Voevodin is the author of many books about our contemporaries: workers, border guards, pilots. This book is also about modernity, working life. The main character is a young working boy, Volodya Sokolov. His entry into a big life: work at a Leningrad factory, service in the border troops, spiritual and moral maturity - forms the content of the first story, “A Pound of Salt.” The second - “Statement in two weeks” - seems to continue the first. And not only because it features the same hero, who returned to his factory after serving in the army. Here, too, we are talking about the sometimes difficult process of the birth of a team, in which everyone comprehends their personal responsibility for everything in life.
