About the book: 2005 / Jim Kokoris is one of the outstanding American writers of our time. The novel "A Rich Life" was recognized by critics as one of the best books of 2002. Reviews of the book were published in almost all glossy magazines in the United States, and the author himself overnight became a public favorite. Deep psychologism, truly funny life situations, vivid, memorable images, amazing events and the author’s ability to resist modern pseudo-morality make Kokoris’s novel a “timeless” thing».
