It was the end of the eighties - the beginning of the nineties: the illusions were not yet lost, but the first disappointments and deceived expectations appeared. Openness and publicity have not yet become completely empty sounds, but something went wrong: many necessary products and things can only be bought with coupons even then not always, the social structures were crumbling. And the surreal, ghostly illustrations by Vyacheslav Losev perfectly reflect the spirit of that time. The time when the state of people, society can be described in the words of V. Belinsky: “We question and question the past so that it explains our present to us and hints at our future.”
