Your Tin Can is Broken

What happens if you wear a crystal clip with the infinity symbol? What depths can a joint journey with a mysterious being named Elena lead to? And how not to go insane in a mad world? Alla Gorbunova's new book... is a radical and visionary text about the nature of reality, about reason and madness, about poetry capable of recreating the world, about incredible horizons of utopia and dreams, and of course about love. This text seems to tremble. But not from the cold, rather from nervous tension. Or from mental exhaustion. Like a panic attack, but you don't scream, you whisper something instead. You tell the person sitting next to you about the nature of reality. As if waves and rhythms of poetry have entered the heroine, and they torment her. ROMAN MIKHAILOV Alla Gorbunova has written a fantastic tale - which is wonderful and amazing in itself. Even more astonishing is that Gorbunova's fiction turns into a poignant love story. But that's not all: in this book about the relationship between humans and machines, the Great Dream suddenly flares up, of making everyone happy at once. Here, there's no need to be afraid of capital letters: both the tragedy that humanity experiences and the utopia, unprecedented and impossible, which seems to be the only thing that can save us, are conveyed here with utmost power, passion, despair, and faith.
