"I tackled topics that were officially almost forbidden, because everyone wrote about industrial topics, and I wrote about family and raising children," Anatolii Dimarov recalled. His novel "Idol" (1961) is touching and makes you think about difficult questions. What unforeseen consequences, both for the woman herself and for her child, can lead to a blind maternal feeling, excessive care for the child? Why do idol children, who received "all the best" from an early age, sometimes grow up callous, rude, selfish, cruel and treacherous? Will the heroes of the novel "His Family" (1956) find ways to get closer when marital love fades, dissatisfaction with each other grows, when daily quarrels, mutual accusations and resentments lead to the disintegration of the family? Anatolii Dimarov raises urgent common human problems in his family novels, which are still of great interest to readers today.
