Три Толстяка
The Three Fat Men
eastern europeThree Fat Men is a Russian and Soviet children's story written by Yury Olesha in 1924, published 1928. The book tells the story of a revolution led by the poor against the rich in a fictional country. This country is described in a realistic spirit, without magic and fairy-tale creatures, but some fantastic elements are still present. It was considered the first revolutionary fairy tale in Soviet literature for its depiction of a popular uprising against a corrupt government. Early critical reaction was varied, with V. Boichevsky describing it as a "sugarcoated" presentation of revolution in an article "How Stories For Children Should Not Be". Anatoly Lunacharsky, however, saw in it "heart-felt apologetics by the artistic intelligentsia accepting the revolution".— Wikipedia
