"The book by the Finnish writer and journalist of the YLE Channel Anna-Lena Lauren is an exciting story about the modern life of Russians. Her lively, written with gentle humor and great empathy sketches form a recognizable image of the contemporary Russia. Anna-Lena Lauren believes that there is nothing offensive about the title of her book. This can be compared with the French expression "Ils sont fous" ("They are crazy"), but in a good sense. The book was translated into Finnish and Russian, and in Russia readers perceived it ambiguously. And now the Ukrainian reader will have the opportunity to better understand those Russians who have something wrong with their head..." In Ukrainian.
