Красные волки, красные гуси

Rate this book
Новый сборник финалиста премии "Большая книга - 2009" Марии Галиной - это путешествие в тонкие миры, существующие бок о бок с нашим. Они, как дольки диковинной луковицы, врастают один в другой. Они невероятно реальны и необычны одновременно.

Вот мир зеленых людей с Марса, способных сбить с идеологической линии яростного атеиста-большевика. А это мир добрых фей - железнодорожных смотрителей, регулирующих движение земных поездов. А следом за ним мир Красной утки, сокровищница орнитолога, - там живет жестокий егерь с молодой женой, а жена у него не простая и даже не человек, хоть и кажется им...

Давно не было писателя, умеющего пробудить во взрослом - подростка, в разуверившемся - зажечь душевную искру, уставшему - вернуть силы и самообладание перед лицом испытаний и возможных неудач.
Галина - тот редкий и уникальный автор, который прямо сейчас умеет вести разговор с читателем на той, уже почти забытой волне, на которой в детстве говорили с нами любимые книги.

Maria Galina (Russian: Мария Галина) is one of the most interesting authors among those who made their names in the turbulent 1990s. She writes both literary and science fiction (with ten SF books to her credit). She is also a noted poet, a thoughtful critic, and translator of English and American science fiction, in all of which she excels. She is a winner of many important prizes for her prose and poetry and her critical essays.

A graduate from Odessa University majoring in sea biology she took part in several sea expeditions but in 1995 she gave up biology and took up writing professionally.

Apart from numerous Russian publications she has three books published in Poland and her work has been included in various anthologies of Russian writing abroad (Russian Women Poets: Modern Poetry in Translation, UCL, London, 2002; and Amerika. Russian Writers View the United States, Dalkey Archive Press).

Her literary fiction contains a strong element of magic realism while gender issues have always been the focus of her attention.

As a poet she was awarded by some of the most prestigious Russian poetry awards - The Moscow Count (for the best poetry book published in Moscow) and Anthology (for the highest achievements in the modern Russian Poetry)
