The authors invite you on an extraordinary journey through Odesa of the "golden age" - the city and suburbs, theater and lyceum, government offices and factories. They offer to become, even if only for a short time, a real Odessa resident and feel the bustle of bazaars, the silence of libraries and the incessant whisper of the sea.
Even then, 200 years ago, young Odesa became an irritant for the aging empire, which was built and ruled by Europeans who sought to recreate here the ideal "city of the Sun" with free people, free trade and Western culture.
