A pioneer flag flutters above the Volga cliffs. Tugboats and steamers pass by. With them flows the wild verse of Aidar Sakhibzadinov, winding around propellers with riverweed.
From the depths of oblivion it pulls out crumbling Kazan cottages, dusty flea markets, and rotting fences. Drifting along come a bus from Zhdanova Street, a student in a blue swimsuit, Kaluga locals and Durykino villagers riding a rickety cart. So this is what raw autofiction looks like — dazzling and intoxicating. Beware, reader: don’t get behind the wheel after reading. Hop on a tram to the river terminal. What happens next — your heart, or Sakhibzadinov’s prose, will tell you.
