About the book: year / Kostya Parfenov loved to come to these places closer to autumn. The midges were not as annoying, and the weather was still quite warm. Nature gifted him with beauty, unimaginable for central Russia, where he lived in recent years, with a wealth of mushrooms, berries and medicinal herbs. Kostya received special pleasure from hunting and fishing. He didn't try to stock up on more. He liked the process itself. It was important for him that walking through the forest or sitting tediously on the bank of a taiga river would definitely be rewarded. On his current visit, he expected to stay in these places longer. For the next vacation, I asked the institute authorities to add the accumulated time off and took a couple more weeks at my own expense.
