Today we have only one text but I think you will like it.

1. Michael  Zoschenko

An editor-in-chief of  a well-known  literary  journal sat at the table in his office with a morning cup of  a daily restorative coffee when suddenly opened  a door,  a visitor  came into the room with obsequious smile and handed braggartly to editor a typescript  by his name.

An acuity polemical flared up among  members of an editorial board about a real writer"s name.

An editor-in-chief epitomized his standpoint and due to his broad-minded outlook the plagiarist's plans were thwarted and debunked a myth of a hidebound impostor about his authorship.

After languishing in obscurity for many years Michael  Zoschenko's early novels have been rediscovered  thanks to that a painful incident.
