About the book: 2018 / New Year is a time of miracles. I want to plunge into joyful chores with my family - decorating the Christmas tree, buying gifts, and listening to New Year's songs, recharging myself in a festive mood. Not this time. It so happened that all my relatives went to different cities, leaving me completely alone in a newly purchased, and therefore not yet inhabited, two-room apartment. I even thought about eating my favorite crab stick salad in the kitchen on New Year’s Eve and going to bed as the chimes struck. Just think, New Year! But one morning, wandering along a snowy street, I suddenly noticed a needle right under my feet - green and fragrant, which I picked up, carefully warming in my hands. And she, beckoning with her unique pine scent, led me to my future happiness.
