Dmitry Gorchev. Muscovites

The book includes selected works by the famous St. Petersburg writer and artist Dmitry Gorchev.
Gorchev invented the Hallucinogenic Mushroom over Moscow – the radiation and vapors from this mushroom make Muscovites think they live in elite mansions, but in reality they sleep in a ditch or under a birch tree, with a bag under their heads. - Dmitry Bykov
He writes a Complete Persimmon, as this genre is called now, and you can't tell whether he's mocking you or not, and it makes your mouth ache, and tears well up in your eyes—those "invisible to the world" ones. - Alexander Zhitinsky
All these texts, from a sober, practical standpoint, are pointless drivel. However, provided they hit the author's exclusive rhythm (and Gorchev's popularity suggests this condition is achievable), the reader is guaranteed a stunning pleasure. Gorchev's texts, pardon the expression, are talented; they are constructed not only by clever authorial techniques, but also by a certain personal taste, the elusive body and shadow of the author. - "Russian Journal"
