Grigory Kruzhkov "Cup in English"

Based on the poems of Spike Milligan

Do you know what happens when an author plays a game with the word and with the reader? Pears immediately begin to grow (yes, exactly, pears), and at the entrance to the store you are met by a mulmul and starts small talk in the mulmul language. You will no longer be able to imagine a world without poor Yorzy Morzy and the humble baby elephant of Berkeley Street, and you will know that if Napoleon had not forced, he would have won the battle of Waterloo.

Grigory Kruzhkov boldly experiments with words, and the artist Evgeny Antonenkov accepts the rules and masterfully plays the game.

As the author himself explains in the preface to the book, the resulting texts in Russian can hardly be called translations. Rather, he retold them, “outplayed” them: “Milligan plays - with the word, with the meaning, with the reader. And my task was the same: to catch his rules and join the game. That is, to achieve the same ludicrous, absurd effect, but by means of the Russian language.”

The Runet Book Prize is an annual award in the field of literature and book business on the Internet. The award is given to the best Russian and foreign authors, as well as book projects based on the results of the selection of the Expert Council and the popular vote of Runet users.

This is the first book in the Lunastra fantasy series. Our Earth is inhabited by three races - faceless (this is us, ordinary people) and two-faced - asters, drawing strength from the stars and lunatics, worshiping the moon. With complete ignorance of the faceless, there is a struggle between two-faced races. Who wins gets new world, Astralis, where the two-faced can live freely. And victory, as often happens, depends on how the fate of several people, often quite young, will turn out. The heroes of the new cycle of the popular writer Natalia Shcherba, at first glance, are just teenagers, but each of them has their own secret, their own purpose and their own path.
