“The journalists don’t understand anything,” “They heard the ringing, but they don’t know where it is,” “Don’t take it seriously, the journalists wrote it”—each of us has heard these or similar phrases more than once. Media representatives themselves have an ambivalent attitude towards such statements. On the one hand, of course, it’s a shame to hear such an unflattering assessment of your work.

In the 30s of the last century, dachas near Moscow (usually one-story wooden houses, sometimes with a mezzanine) were built primarily for the purpose of taking children “out into nature,” i.e., as they would say today, for recreational purposes. So my parents, who belonged to the middle-income Moscow intelligentsia, 75 years ago built a purely summer one-story wooden house, where until 1941 the four of us lived with my nanny.

The next anniversary of the events of August, 91st was somehow very modest, from the point of view of the attention of the media. In general, it seems that it began to remember this ... somehow it is not too convenient or something. As they say, the tops cannot and do not want, and the bottoms are not up to that.
