The quest novel pretends to be a photo album with captions for the pictures. 150 photographs of St. Petersburg and 150 captions, which became the chapters of a novel in three parts about how a young woman returns to Bettersburg to break the blood ties that bind her. The woman's name is Anna K., so at the end of the book she hurries to the station... Each of the chapters is created on the ruins of well-known songs, poems or prose works dedicated to St. Petersburg: there is Pushkin here and Tsoi, Grebenshchikov and Blok, Gorky and Carroll, Brodsky and Bashlachev.
The reader will need attention to find the graphic solution, hidden in the pages of a book.
Authors: Anna Pronina, a photographer; Andrey Sablin, a journalist; zonk197, a graphic artist from Orenburg.
