Not to Lose a Person

The Vainer Brothers are recognized masters of detective fiction, but they have also successfully worked in other genres. For example, the events of the story "Karsky Raid" take place in the 1920s. Russia is tormented by the upheavals of the... revolution and the bloody Civil War. The external threat is high. In the European part of the country, there is famine, while in Siberia there is plenty of bread, but it can only be delivered via the Northern Sea Route, and this task seems almost impossible… Another example of the unconventional creativity of the Vainers is the artistic-documentary essays compiled in the book "Not to Lose a Person." In these, the authors tell real stories of teenagers who have broken the law. Arkady Vainer's story "Nelyud" served as the basis for the screenplay of the eponymous film from 1990. The main roles in the film were played by such wonderful actors as Lyudmila Gurchenko, Boris Nevozov, and Sergey Nikonenko.
