They say you can't command your heart. The main characters of the books from today's selection tried to prove or disprove this hackneyed axiom. What did they get? We read in the books of contemporary Russian writers.
Lana Barsukova, "Compose my life"
Tanya Sidorova is a young, toothy, promising journalist, but not yet noticed by large resources. Day after day, she vegetates in the modest office of a small newspaper and barely makes ends meet. But one day, a small task, or rather, a personal request from the editor-in-chief, radically changes Tanya's life - she needs to write a biography of one of the investors who decided to go into politics. Yes, write in such a way that Igor Lukich becomes not just another brilliant candidate from the people, but a national hero. Tanya, of course, copes. And, having changed himself, he changes himself - where is that ambitious journalist in an old sweater? She is no more.

Masha Traub, "Or I'll die of happiness now"
We are taught from childhood that life does not tolerate the subjunctive mood and that what has been done, like what has been said, cannot be turned back. But we always try to fix what happened - each in his own way. Someone deliberately remains a capricious child, harassing those around him with petty hooliganism and large-scale selfishness. Someone's big heart hurts for every member of a large family, even if it's a daughter-in-law who stubbornly refuses to call herself a daughter. Someone easily starts new families, maintaining warm relations with ex-wives. Absolutely, life does not tolerate one thing: black and white heroes and template answers. In the stories of Masha Traub you will not find either one or the other - everything is there, as in life.
Oleg Roy, "Three Colors of Love"

Maria Metlitskaya, "Beware the doors are closing"
They don't look for good from good, folk wisdom says. But people still strive from the good to the unknown better - suddenly there, beyond the horizon, another, bright, happy life. Most forget that the other is not necessarily the best. Several stories of completely different people. What unites them? Yevgeny Sviridov so dreamed of leaving the hated "scoop", but did not think that there, "over the hill", he would not be needed by anyone, even by himself. Salihat was simply created for motherhood and family happiness, but life decreed otherwise, although fate rewarded her in her own way for her endless patience and bright character. Svetlana could become a symbol of the turn of the century - a woman who pulled her family out on her back in the 90s, succeeded at the beginning of the 21st century, made herself and suppressed her husband's loser. Or was it his own choice? The prototypes of the characters in this book can be found everywhere: in the apartment opposite, in the next compartment and in the mirror.
