Literary editorial illustrations are dedicated to favorite writers.
The collages convey different meanings and emotions from the authors.
The first collage shows how our brain struggles to work with the difficult and profound
meanings of Tolstoy's and Dostoevsky's
works.
This collage is dedicated to Mikhail Bulgakov. This author helps shatter illusions about Soviet Moscow, if you had any before..
After reading his books, you can feel how the clips "skrepi" -
(this word is used to convey old and conservative rules and principles of life)
fall away from you.
This illustration shows women's Bell Jar.
Tove Ditlevsen and Sylvia Plath are two of the most powerful and honest authors of the 20th century.
The collage conveys the relevance of the"bell jar" and women's feelings today.
Were we so unhappy if somebody told us to ask for help?..
The last collage shows comparison between Alexander Pushkin and William Shakespeare.
Poetry and music
can evoke similar feelings in different countries and in different centuries.
