About the book: 1990 / The world is amazed that strange flying bodies have appeared in the airspace. In the old Cherkaz chronicles these bodies are called Bactrians. They record that the Bactrian lives everywhere: in the sand, in the water - there are also aquatic Bactrians - in the air; whoever can look at the sun will see Bactrian in his eye. Nobody knows where or when he might appear.
