A Road of a Thousand Years. Part One. Chapter One

Spring arrived early in Beijing that year, awakening something that had not yet fully stirred but was already preparing to spill out onto the streets. The city froze, as if lying in wait, anticipating something unknown. The school smelled of books, wet wood, and something subtly new — a scent that appears only at the onset of impending, as yet indistinguishable changes. The morning light filtered through unwashed windows, painting the maps and the portrait of the Great Helmsman in faded tones

A Road of a Thousand Years. Prologue

On the day Chen Wang closed the door of the old school behind him for the last time, he knew that the new blocks of Beijing would soon rise here, yet he would long remember this moment, just as one remembers the final dream before awakening. He understood even then that he would never return — not for lack of will, but for lack of anywhere to return to: the walls, steeped in voices and footsteps, would be razed, just as old houses are razed to make room for a future that holds no space for the past

A Road of a Thousand Years. Glossary

The Great Helmsman (伟大的舵手 / Wěidà de Duòshǒu) — An honorary title for Mao Zedong (1893–1976), Chairman of the Communist Party of China.

“The Iranian Diary”: Anatomy of Paranoia in Three Acts

In contemporary literature, Iran usually appears in one of two guises: either as a caricatured “Axis of Evil” populated by mad ayatollahs, or as an exotic backdrop for tear-jerking tales of oppression. In his The Persian Notebook: Architects of Shadow cycle, the author chooses a third, far more complex path. He portrays Iran as a vast laboratory where experiments are conducted not only on the atom, but on the human soul. And he does so with great love: for the country, the religion, and the characters

Operation “Stray Dog”. Epilogue

Alavi, sitting in the deep armchair of a private business jet flying across the Pacific toward Boston, was not sleeping. He swirled a glass of stolen 1985 French cognac in his fingers and looked into the black window, which reflected his own face—old and tired. He wasn’t thinking about the missile. Or the saved world. He was thinking about whether he would recognize Zeynab tomorrow or not. After all, they say that children who outplay their parents in the art of survival have their eye color change. They become the color of ash

Operation “Stray Dog”. Chapter 12

“Keep it,” Amirkhan squeezed her fingers. “Put it in the pocket where you keep your biggest secrets. The world has gone mad, Zahra-jan. Today Africa, tomorrow Antarctica. But good falafel… good falafel is always hard currency. And, as Alavi used to say… it’s better to have a backup airfield than to be a hero posthumously.” Zahra looked at him. Then at the card. And she smiled—that same smile that, thirty years ago in Isfahan, had made him lose his head

Экономика «Истребителя демонов»: как аниме-гигант стал спасителем

Анимационная драма о полчищах плотоядных чудовищ вряд ли звучит как классический кассовый хит, но именно таковым в сентябре стал фильм «Истребитель демонов: Замок бесконечности» (Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba Infinity Castle). Лента установила новые рекорды для аниме — японских анимационных фильмов и сериалов, — заработав более 70 млн долларов за первый уикенд в США и 720 миллионов по всему миру

Operation “Stray Dog”. Chapter 11

The camp of the PMC “Steppe Wolves” resembled the set of “Mad Max” if it had been filmed in Zhytomyr. The tents were covered with camouflage netting woven from local vines. On the roof of the commander’s Jeep, a Toyota Hilux (with a machine gun in the bed), stood a Starlink dish; socks were drying next to it. In the center of the camp, an antelope leg, shot an hour ago, was roasting over a fire made from ammo crates
