Kem by ya byla, esli by ne byla soboy

Chto, esli vashe telo, soznanie i dazhe mir vokrug — lish illyuziya, kotoruyu mozhno peresozdat zanovo? Rita Bullvinkel predlagaet 11 strannyh, tyomnyh i neveroyatno chelovechnyh istoriy, kotorye ostanutsya s vami nadolgo. "Kem by ya byla, esli by ne byla soboy" — eto debyutnyy sbornik rasskazov Rity Bullvinkel: kniga, v kotoroy realnost postoyanno uskolzaet i prinimaet samye prichudlivye formy. Zdes poyavlyayutsya prizraki i medium, oderzhimaya arfami zhenschina i shkolnitsy, schitayuschie sebya rasteniyami, zaklyuchennye GULAGa, vlyublennye podrostki, oderzhimaya volosami vdova, zmey, pritvoryayuschiysya grushey, i dazhe plotoyadnaya tserkov. Eti beskonechno strannye, poroy grotesknye, no pri etom trogatelnye i pugayuschie istorii soedinyayut v sebe absurd i glubokuyu chelovechnost. Geroi sbornika ispytyvayut vozmozhnosti sobstvennogo tela, stavyat pod somnenie privychnye predstavleniya o realnosti i pytayutsya razobratsya v samyh fundamentalnyh voprosah bytiya — prirode soznaniya, lyubvi, straha i odinochestva.
