And it was so

Young, beautiful, sad, cheerful — the heroes of this book know that youth is the time to understand how the world is arranged and learn to live in it. The heroine always has many questions, and she is not shy about asking them, while the hero always has answers ready, because he is God. Yes, slender, seventeen years old, in denim shorts, with curly hair and a bandaged ankle. You can joke with him, spar, contemplate the sunset, and rest your head on his shoulder. He is always there and will never let you down. And most importantly, he has thousands of songs in store — about everything in the world, even about how quickly youth passes.
Lyrical, tender, philosophical, raising sharp questions, Lena Burkova's novel is an attempt to freeze a moment and remember everything that surrounds, occupies, and concerns today's youth entering adult life.
