The twelve Chairs. Ilf I., Petrov E.

The novel “The Twelve Stilts” (1927) gained cult status almost from the moment of its appearance, and retains its status until now. Vіn follows the strongest traditions of the adventurous and satirical novel. “Twelve Stilts” is a reference comic encyclopedia, especially in the depiction of characters: there are a lot of caricatures that are as complex as possible. The wondrous Ostap, who in his old age succumbed to greed, Hypolit “Kisa” Vorobyaninov, has a terrible dream about the “candle factory”, the busy father Fedir, the “raging villain” Alkhen, “the secret woman, the dream sings” Madame Gritsatsueva, bypassing literary hackwork Nikifor Lyapis-Trubetskoy... All the stinks have rightfully risen to the treasury of the most comical literary types. Dozens of dramas, musicals and films were based on the novel. The most famous and favorite among them is Mark Zakharov’s comedy “12 Stilts” (1976) with Andriy Mironov and Anatoly Papanov in the leading roles. Like a gift, the book will be given to people with ease and almost I'm going to die. The book in a leathern palette with embossed gold foil could also be included in a family library. This edition is numbered. At the moment the following numbers are available for booking: 13, 21-50
