A Whole Year

According to the author, a calendar, being a purely practical and extremely ephemeral item, is a bright and instructive sign of its time, perhaps more illustrative than objects of so-called high culture. It is meant to serve for a year,... yet it has the property of being stuck in memory for whole decades. The famous poet and prose writer Lev Rubinstein offers the reader his calendar, where each day is marked by some event, memory, or eloquent detail preserved by whimsical memory, in which the era refracts strangely and astonishingly... Where seemingly ordinary everyday trifles suddenly strike with their unexpected depth and warmth of living life.
