В этой аудиокниге представлены автобиографические новеллы одного из величайших писателей двадцатого века - Исаака Бабеля. Каждая из них воссоздает особый мир, запечатлевшийся в памяти автора: воспоминания о детстве и первой любви, колоритной Одессе с ее криминальными легендами и беспощадные описания революционного Петрограда.

Ein paar Verse nur von Heinrich Heine haben mehr Wärme, aber eben auch mehr philosophische Essenz und Tiefe als tausend laufende Regalmeter deutscher Kathederphilosophie zusammengenommen.

Cartwheeling from story to story, Dessaix describes an identity in flux: his beginnings as an adopted child named Thomas Robert Jones, his youthful interest in religious thinking, his obsession with all things Russian, his marriage to Lisa and divorce, his discovery of travel.
