About the book: 2020 / In addition to artistic prose, German Sadulaev’s creative baggage includes historical and ethnographic essays, as well as vivid journalistic materials. “Gothic Letters” is a conceptual collection made up of novellas, short stories, historical essays, notes and even sketches. The connecting thread here is the theme of the Goths, an ancient tribe that created its first state on the territory of present-day Russia, subsequently invaded the Roman Empire and settled throughout Europe. The book will be of interest both to a qualified reader prepared in terms of historical knowledge, and to everyone who is not indifferent to the history and destinies of our country.
