Ви́ктор Анато́льевич Шендеро́вич (род. 1958) — российский и израильский прозаик, журналист, поэт, драматург, сценарист, теле- и радиоведущий, сатирик, публицист, педагог.
Written imminently after Maidan in Kiev, Ukraine, which led to the ousting of a democratically elected president and oficial incorporating Crimea into Russia by Kremlin, this work is rather daily notes reflecting author's attitude to geopolitical and personal events occuring, than a novel, and might be of some interest to afar generations of PhD students searching the pre-dawn of a post-human era.
Distant from Russia's official descriptions, it provides very intimately-personal conclusions sometimes hard to swallow by a foreign reader if even in cases of the West the author broadly attended something mentioned.
