Melodies of Love

“...There is nothing deliberate or contrived in these stories. It is as if the author chops off, piece by piece from himself, every story - childhood with his granny, musical lessons, loving experience of youth, and, of course, music: music which sounds in every story - sometimes by relief, sometimes just by a hardly seen shade... The confession of each hero in “Requiem” is bright, serene, and heartfelt as well as all of Kholodov’s prose...” —“Literary Symphony”, Book Review, Moscow.
