Victoria Tokareva is a well-known writer and screenwriter; her name is familiar to Russian readers and viewers from beloved childhood films: "Lesson in Literature", "Gentlemen of Fortune", "Mimino", "A Dog Walked into a Piano", "You Are...". A special place in the author's work is occupied by novellas and short stories. Warm, lively, with gentle humor, written in an inimitable, light, "Tokareva" style, with likable characters who sometimes resemble ourselves: rushing through life, not having time to look back, like on a roller coaster. Rise - fall, love - separation, joy - anger. But through the series of black and white spots, the kaleidoscope of human destinies, and the chaos of feelings, the main thing emerges: life is not a heavy burden, but a divine gift, and after the darkness of night, dawn will come. The publication includes prose works by Victoria Tokareva, including the stories "As Bad as Today", "Other People's Problems", "I Also Feel Sorry for the Scoundrels", "Strangeness of Love", the novella "Accidental Connection", and others.
