Max Maximov, one of the most notable modern Russian writers, is now in English! Can dreams come true? Or the world will remain illusive without dreaming?
The whole life Ivan was told that he had to take pot luck. But Ivan had always knew clearly what he wanted get of his life. No failure could stop him. He learned from his mistakes... Until one day a force that had power not only over Ivan, but over the whole world overran his fate. The moment Ivan reached success, became billionaire, launched a spacecraft to the Mars and was about to realize his dream everything turned into ashes. Is the protagonist running insane? Or it's somebody else who writes Ivan's story? Perhaps, the nightmare began in the distant past, where Ivan being a boy saw what he was not supposed to?
Or things are simply less complicated and the author has just crossed the line separating genius from insane?
