(Russian) Мир хорошистов
В этом сборнике содержится восемь рассказов, в которых с помощью научной и обычной фантастики, а также реализма можно по-другому взглянуть на мир. В нем герои страдают лишь потому что они отличаются от других, или они слабее обычных детей. Здесь на мир смотрят не с точки зрения лидеров, а с точки зрения меншинств.
(English) The World of Bs
This book is a collection of eight short stories from three genres—science fiction, fantasy, and realism—each of which views the world from a new perspective. What is particularly fascinating is the unique spaces where the stories unfold; for example, a galactic train to a boarding school on Pluto, or an old medieval hotel that resembles a haunted house. What could be read simply as beautiful tales, in fact, contain painful stories of those who undergo violence for being perceived as different or weak. The title "The World of Bs" signifies a society viewed from the perspective of the minority.
