In the book of the famous writer, curator of international exhibitions, and art therapist Elena Makarova, autobiographical stories about childhood, letters, and diaries are included. "In pondering what I had created long ago, I took out a suitcase with cheerful children's letters," writes Makarova. "I sent them to my parents from hospitals and orphanages. As a little girl, I felt the fragility of their relationship and understood that they bore with each other because of me; therefore, I must constantly make them happy, and then they won’t divorce." Sympathy for lost adults and compassion for disadvantaged children permeate the works and life of the author. This is not only mentioned in the books. By choosing the profession of art therapist, Elena Makarova continues to help people.
