And I must say that the majority of modern writers the feeling of “pleasantness” share. That said, for example, Lyudmila Ulitskaya: “This stop for me was extremely important. “Sit and think!” – that is the main message that I read of the events”. The writer said that the eternal question “what to do?” she in the current situation answers not on a philosophical level, and at household – its first domestic case was “breaking the corners”.

the author of the many beloved “Days of Sam” Gregory, the Servant said: “I pulled out of mothballs ancient console Dendy. Watch movies: Chaplin, Pasolini, Greenaway.

Museum-estate “Yasnaya Polyana” remains: “the Great hall was the favorite room of Countess Sophia Andreyevna. <...> He came here just for Breakfast, for lunch and for evening tea. The rest of the day he spent in his office”. The “famous “recluse”, the old man Tolstoy in fact was in such a vibrant and varied communication with the outside world, what is probably not known by many residents of the capital”.

Moreover, the organizers urge all who are interested, I also put quotes writers, both modern and classics, about home entertainment in the social network. Necessarily, noting the name of the project #Pisatelyami, as well as the accounts of the organizers in the social network will repost. “Let’s prove to everyone that the house is not to sit in prison and live a full life!”, calls on the project.
