Timofey has a younger brother, and Irka has an older brother. Timofey writes in a notebook, and Irka draws in a sketchbook. They are strangers, their stories are different, but both feel equally lonely in a family where there is someone loving and close. This is a two-sided book, on each side - the story of one of the heroes.
What should a person do when he is left alone? Brother, sister, parents, school - a person is never left alone. Timofey is the older brother, and he has absolutely no time to think. There are people around you, next to whom you were born, who study with you... And if you still find yourself completely alone, and the phone does not work. What to do with this time? Maybe start writing? What should I write?..
It’s easier for Irka, she’s the youngest. When your big brother is around, he's such a brother! - everything is not so complicated, and in general such a life is called “happy childhood”, there is nothing to buzz about. But does her brother and other people need her now, and in general... who is she? It seems she knows how to draw... although if you compare it with Pashka or her classmate Tonya, she can’t do it at all. And then... what to draw?
A book of consolation and a book of support for everyone who feels lonely.
Those who have a brother or sister will definitely recognize themselves in this book!
And those who do not have a brother or sister will feel like they are part of a big world in which you can always meet someone close.
No one has ever described the complexity and contradictions of life with such tenderness.
