About the book: 2021 / His Majesty Office. Meetings, reports, tables. A Muscovite moves to London to work in a huge company and looks like a black sheep in it. Sincerity, friendliness, and openness are not accepted here: everyone pursues their own goals. The heroine is drawn into this world, where manipulation and lies lead to career success - you just need to accept its rules... Here even the Thames is changeable and absurd, and only the eternal Big Ben knows the truth. “That rare case when a fascinating “office story” becomes genuine literature" (Elena Chizhova).
