The Bible says the monster of Leviathan, medieval artists painted him as a hybrid of a hippo with a crocodile. This name is called the state. Leviathan is cunning: it seems we know the habits of the beast, but he will always come up with a new trick. Maxim Kantor, the author of the Red and Drawing Textbook, told how Leviathan behaves today. Why is democracy not democratic? Why does modern liberal protecting slavery? Where did the middle class go? Why did the avant -garde stop being an advanced detachment, but began to serve rich thieves? In the book – articles about Marx, Chaadaev, Mayakovsky, Bulgakov – about those who tried to understand Leviathan. In the book, portraits of oligarchs and poor, revolutionaries and panties. The book tells us about all: how we again believed in Leviathan and how the beast again deceived.
