Adelaide Metelkin. I'm waiting for the tram

Shkarny New Year output " Exlibris" NG " - results of 2000. It is better to buy it in a kiosk: this is the rare case when the paper overshadows the screen; The pages of the A2 format are covered with radiant Amalgama, in which the total labor sweat of people who have done their jobs for conscience is always implemented. To put it mildly. Commenting the particular is pointless. The product for storage in the nearby drawer of the table and multiple reread.

Last week, “Book Review” was interested in the opinion of critics about publishers. The Exlibris acted exactly the opposite: he asked thirty -two publishers what they think about critics. The results of the questionnaire are a pure thriller without a happy ending, especially in a comparison with an editorial , which is reasonably devoted to book series ( "Searching for the author is more difficult than manipulating the authors" ).

The central turn - an expert editorial rating with thirty narrow and sometimes exotic ("Byzantineism", "Russian prose" ...) by henchmen. In the "Geography" section, the observer is noted by M. Yampolsky, under the dick "Best Site" - a black and white portrait of the RJ logo.

Well, naturally, a bunch of all festive, coniferous-mandarine. Knitted toys , palanks and carriages , patterned tiles , cocktails , Christmas customs , computer games .

Plus, the holy story from Santa Claus is elegant and funny, but purely for specialists. In particular, a positive prostitute appears there, "languid aselaid Adelaide with a light mystics in the look." True, on the back of the pages, Mikhail Kotomin writes that "Metelkina ... has grown somewhat and became more petty."

You are mistaken, dear. I am still very, very nothing.
