Plagiator

Tamara Kryukova is a classic of modern literature for children and teenagers. In the new series "Big Novels", the writer presents works addressed to an adult audience for the first time.
The closer to the truth, the farther from oneself...
Despite the difficult path to success, Pavel has been lucky lately. His books are being read, his relationship with his wife has become closer than ever, and the new novel he has been nurturing for two years seems to be a bestseller... Until one chance meeting shatters everything.
A stranger in a café places an old folder with yellowed pages in front of him – and Pavel sees a text he knows by heart. His text. The novel he wrote for two years turns out to have been written word for word forty years ago.
Coincidence? Someone else's game? Or does he himself not know something important about himself? To save his name and understand where the truth ends and self-deception begins, Pavel sets off in pursuit of someone else's manuscript – and sinks deeper into his own life, where something has long since gone wrong.
«Plagiator» is an intellectual novel with the nerve of a psychological thriller and the depth of a personal drama, an honest conversation about a midlife crisis and the right to a second chance.
