Подтексты. 15 путешествий по российской глубинке в поисках просвета

«Подтексты» – честный путеводитель по жизни в российской глубинке, написанный социальным журналистом Евгенией Волунковой. В книге собраны 15 резонансных репортажей из разных уголков страны. Каждый текст дополнен «подтекстом», небольшим авторским послесловием о поисках справедливости и надежды, эмоциональных вызовах и профессиональном выгорании, о сгущающейся тьме и просветах в ней.

Отблески таёжного костра

Владимир Репин

Отблески таёжного костра

Автор побывал и исходил пешком практически все уголки родного района. Потомственный таежник. За многие годы, проведенные в тайге, довелось повидать много интересного и занимательного в жизни природы, и ее обитателей. Собственные наблюдения за поведением зверей и птиц стали итогом произведений: «Белый», «Медведи», «На глухариный ток». Впечатления и воспоминания детства, юности, зрелой жизни легли в основу написанных рассказов. Все герои – реальные люди, это – его друзья и сам автор.
