The company was sitting on the bench: young girl a man and a certain learned old man. It was a summer morning. Above. they stood a mighty tree with a hollow. Mustiness wafted easily from the hollow. The old man remembered children's penetrations into the cellar.
The young man said:
I'm free all day today.
Me too,” said the learned old man.
The young man worked as a machinist on a Buffalo rammer. He rolled asphalt pavements. He was a Latvian, by the name of Tsvibol. Sasha Zvibol.
A gypsy girl the size of a broom came up.
She offered lilies.
Get out,” said the learned old man.
Sasha Zvibol was indignant.
Here's how - the old man was surprised - - it touches you - Strange from the mouth ...

Random excerpt from the book:
Take us to the bus,” the girl said. They went, She walked one step ahead. Bohemsky looked at her back and thought:
No, this is not love. This is lust. Cowardly senile lust. I want to eat you. Do you hear? I would eat you, starting from the back, from the shoulder blades.
Such a beauty! Zvibol said.
These enthusiastic words he said with an accent. And it sounded brave. From enthusiasm, adjusted for masculinity, a shy passion turned out, And the old man envied.
Katya, your lover looks like a Roman! he called to the girl.
I'm from Riga, - said Zvibol.
So what? It's the same style. Warriors. Order of the Templars.
Now there are no Khamovniki, - Katya said over her shoulder, - now it is called the Frunzensky district.
They came to a stop.
What if it rains? Bohemian said.
It won't work," Zvibol said.
They raised their heads. The sky was clear. Blue sky.
Rain is the enemy of lovers, said the old man; he drives them out of the gardens. An evil guardian of morality.
The bus came up.
They did not have time to say goodbye to the learned old man.
He saw Katya being carried away on the bandwagon. She entered the door. Blowed by the wind of movement, it acquired a resemblance to a hyacinth.
Bohemian was walking in an indefinite direction.
He was tall and slender. He walked like a young man. A black cloak fluttered about him. On gray curls stood a black hat. He was the kind of pedestrian that dogs fear. He's coming. The dog running towards him suddenly stops, looks at the walker for a second and runs to the other side. There he runs under the wall, stops when the pedestrian is already far ahead, and looks after the pedestrian.
Bohemsky walked and thought about the girl. "A first-class girl. She is a first-class girl and does not know her own worth. Under other objective conditions, she would spin history." He began to reflect on the age of enlightened absolutism. Duchess du Barry. Salons. And much more. directories. Varras. Rise of Bonaparte. Mrs Recamier. The women spoke Latin. Mind game. Threads of politics in a small pen. George Sand. Chopin. Ida Rubinstein.
