Pit

In the edition published novel by A. Kuprin "the Pit". His task the author has formulated in the words of one of the characters: "...Our artists... somehow still avoided prostitution and a brothel. Maybe in disgust, cowardice, for fear of being branded as a pornographic writer, finally, just out of fear that our crony criticism identifies the artistic work of the writer with his personal life and goes to dig through his dirty Laundry. Or, maybe they do not have neither the time nor the dedication nor the composure to delve head first into this life and watching her close, without prejudice, without loud phrases, the sheep without mercy, in all its monstrous simplicity and everyday practicality".
