The heroines of this book take deception very seriously, seeing it as a creative act, a means to strengthen a fragile reality or an instrument of power. The path of the Liar seems to them a heroic path and the only true path for the artist. But before or pose; but each of them guesses that the main thing of her life was an ordinary, not at all heroic, self-deception. These women think they are writing novels and their own destinies, but in truth, they are all writing the same book about unfulfilled love. They are, in fact, busy extracting their soul from the darkness of despair, wrapping themselves in a soft, burned heart, scaring wounded self-love, and writing this damned book, hoping one day to get rid of it completely and escape - through white snow, through green grass, where there will be no pain. The collection includes the stories: "As fat as I am", "The Fox Wife", "Magicians", "Signs of Love and Its Endings"
