Dear reader! Before you is a small book that touches on quite a lot of problems of our existence today. Reading page after page, the reader recognizes himself more than once. More than once it will seem to him that here it is, in front of him, the answer to the most pressing human problems, one way or another affecting us all. Is it possible to maintain friendship, and on what is it, this friendship, based? Is it possible to save love, but is it love? Is it possible to be a little pregnant, a little thief and almost a murderer? And where can one find a place for God in the soul, among the everyday, obsessive bustle, which is not even defined by man as sin? Even if the reader does not shed tears over the fate of the heroes, he will definitely think about it. And he will definitely ask himself the question: what about me?
