About the book: 2022 / The main character of this novel, generous with details, a young and straightforward woman Asya, is exhausted, trying to arrange her family life. She is hardworking and kind, she gets everything done. But times of change are coming: their mother dies, the factory burns down, Asya and her husband Ruslan are left without work, and, thanks to the efforts of a scandalous neighbor, without an apartment. In order to feed her children, the heroine finds herself at a provincial market and plunges into the world of entrepreneurship, which is alien to her. A bus with shuttle drivers is robbed by bandits, adventures and misadventures pour in as if from a cornucopia, and love for the family, for which Asya makes sacrifices... isn’t she in danger of some other, more insidious danger? Tenacious, sharp, super-realistic, very truthful prose about the “dashing nineties” penetrates directly into the heart, making us feel sorry for everyone. To be amazed at human resilience, to be annoyed at stupidity and to laugh at ridiculous situations. And most importantly, appreciate the miracle of life. Whatever happens.
