To help support the Russian Avant-garde Gallery, I have made the following e-books, illustrated by Tatiana Kofyan. By purchasin them here, you make a contribution to the further development of this website and receive a delightful, flip-page e-book.
Right now there is only one e-book ready, but more are in preparation, and will be ready very soon (in a matter of a couple of weeks).

The book was Illustrated in the beginning of 1979, the last year of our life in USSR (we left in April that year), and published after we left. In the initial printing Tatiana's name was omitted from the book, because of our immigration. There are over 100 illustrations here.
