My Real Name. Stories with Biography

The new book of autobiographical prose by Lyudmila Ulitskaya is a personal, deeply intimate account of a person's meeting with themselves. Time, limited to the present, as the very fact of the future is called into question. The world, shrunk... to the size of a room, where books are reread, diary pages are flipped through, old loves and friendships are experienced again. Emotional memory encompasses much, including black holes where dear people, who have left forever, once were. And all this is the material from which the stories and memoir essays that make up this book are created. A person is only given the chance to know their true name after death, when an angel places a white stone with their real name in their hand. Lyudmila Ulitskaya
