He was reproached for imperial ambitions and anti-Americanism, called the Northern Pavich, Krusanov’s novels are included in short lists of leading literary awards.
The King of the Head is a book of amazing stories, modern city myths and fairy tales are akin to Apuleev metamorphoses or stories of Pu Sun -Lina. In this world, a customs officer can turn into a dog, and a minor shket forces the evil watchman of the parking lot to disappear from the face of the earth forever. Heroes keep their secret to the last, the author prefers a silence to eloquence, depriving readers of serenity.
