Oleg Agranyants is a Russian writer who emigrated to America, a former employee of the Soviet Foreign Ministry and US federal agencies, known to readers for a series of ironic detective stories - the trilogy "In Search of Mephistopheles". On the advice of Maupassant, he decided not to abuse the reader's patience and not write mossy memoirs, but to tell the world funny and funny stories that abound in the author's biography. About how I read Akhmatova's poems and listened to Vertinsky's advice on how to treat ladies. About how Yuri Gagarin taught him to deceive his wife, and the future anti-hero of Beslan Dzasokhov ran around the ladies' toilets. About how he was engaged in activities "incompatible with diplomatic status" on a tropical island. About how, during a conversation with the director of the CIA, he tried to understand whether Gorbachev was a spy. These stories are not about deeds, not about ideas, but about living people. Sometimes - funny to the point of anecdotal, sometimes - sad. But thanks to the undoubted literary talent of the author and rich life experience, readers will not be left indifferent, not without intellect.
