Victor Pelevin. The sacred book of the werewolf (№ 436829)

Take a fifty year old newspaper and read it. Curly silly letters, insignificant ambitions of the dead, who do not yet know that they are dead ... All this, the present, which you care so much about, is no different from what was seething in the minds then - except that the order of words in the headings has changed. Come to your senses!
