Афонские рассказы: A Book on the Life of Athonite Monks

Аlexander Dvorkin's new book, "Афонские рассказы," may seem unusual to those who know him solely for his anti-cult and historical church works. The book is a collection of stories about his trips to Mount Athos, where he presents himself as a sensitive lyricist that can evoke not only information but also mood. The book's lyrical tone is complemented by humor, such as in the stories "Крестный ход" and "Как мы мешали людям приходить в Православие." The stories are united by the common theme of the life of Athonite monks, and Dvorkin managed to find such a tonality that is sure to touch the hearts of many readers. His stories are simple and straightforward. He talks about simple things: the monastic way of life, the people he met on his trips, and the stories they told him.
