Plant it, and it will grow

One hero. One country. Several prisons – inside and out. The path from banking deals and secular temptations to a solitary cell and survival workshops. «Plant it, and it will grow» – a novel about strange and somehow glorious years,... when the renewed Moscow, hatching from the shattered Soviet Union, spread its still raw wings over a rapidly changing Russia.
This is a story about new perspectives that turned into traps, about hopes and longings, and about where illusions end and real life begins.
This is a tough and very human tale for those who believe that beyond real or imaginary captivity, one can find, if not freedom, then at least sincerity.

• Novel finalist of the «National Bestseller» award (2006)
• The narrator is not the most ordinary hero: it is not the first time a book character ends up in prison on criminal charges. But it is not so often – for a reason
• The author is a laureate and finalist of several literary awards, including «Yasnaya Polyana», «Big Book» and «National Bestseller». «Plant it and it will grow» – his loud debut
