from discussions on www.marinina.ru: Please advise! My dad suddenly started reading Marinina’s books.

We talked with Alexandra Marinina not far from Chistye Prudy, in the office of her literary agency. Here, under the constant supervision of her agent Nathan Zablotskis, the “queen of detective stories” writes her books.

Muscovites will have to do without full-fledged television broadcasting for at least three months - these are the most optimistic forecasts. Of course, in just three days (the more cautious say: in a week), ORT, RTR, and NTV will return to their “buttons” - though not in full - but this should rather upset the sensible Muscovite. It would be better for us, as an experiment, to live without TV for at least a month.
