synopsis
In the ruins of Moscow two centuries after the apocalypse, inhabitants dwell in primitive, frequently brutal conditions in which mice are a source of food, clothing, and commerce and books are banned by the ruling tyrant, although he plagiarizes the works of the old masters in order to make his own wise pronouncements.
