Here is a collection of two outstanding novels by Ilya Ilf and Yevgeny Petrov: "The Twelve Chairs" and "The Golden Calf". These works became not only the pinnacle of Soviet satire, but also an expressive portrait of the 1920s and 1930s - a time of absurdity, hope, and human ingenuity. "The Twelve Chairs" is published in its entirety, without the censored cuts that accompanied the novel from the moment of its first publication. Restored from archival sources, it returns to the reader the authors' voices in all their freedom and caustic irony. The continuation of the story of Ostap Bender is "The Golden Calf", an equally brilliant novel that combines the grotesque with precise observations of Soviet reality. Together, these books form a complete literary canvas in which humor, fantasy, and satire become a means of deep understanding of human nature and social change. The publication is decorated with illustrations by Soviet artists. Their expressive graphics do not simply accompany the text, but become an independent layer of the narrative, complementing the atmosphere and spirit of the works. These are not just books, but a celebration of language, images and timeless wit.
