WAITING FOR ILYUSHA
KYIV (October 5, 2000)
Chestnut trees are shockingly beautiful on this Indian summer evening – like redhead women on a stroll, oblivious to all but their own electric universe. Tomorrow, they may turn back into rusty decorations, stuck all over the city to remind us of the ugly November. Today, they rule.

SLAUGHTERHOUSE

MOSCOW (April 4, 2001)
