Give Me a Monkey

The three whales on which the foundation of this book by Sergey Nosov rests are three novels, three truly significant milestones in the Petersburg literary cosmos. «Member of the Society, or Hungry Times» is a book that is outwardly (but only outwardly) about how one can easily contract cannibalism in the literal sense from culinary recipes in books, perceived by unbalanced minds. «Give Me a Monkey». How from anything you can make anyone — a novel about the amazing phenomenon of modern political technology practices and masters of the game of scoring into empty nets. And «The Crows Have Flown Away» is a rather provocative piece expressing a simple thought: in order to become a leader on the front lines of artistic battles, what does a creator need? Just to urinate off a bridge, and then art experts will call this natural act a new milestone in contemporary art. The book concludes with novellas and stories that present the author as a magnificent storyteller and brilliant narrator.
