[Anna Astafyeva · Rating 5 out of 5]

Not highly engaging, but charming and beautiful. Existentialism vibes, depression of early 20 century, and realization that so many people who influenced the life of the humanity a lot operated in the same or very close physical geographical space throughout 1913.
