Model ball bearing, ship model ... for the toilers of the podium there was the designation "fashion model", and they did not get sky-high fees and do not wear diamonds to the bakery.

Referring to Zbarskii stories he wrote about the first people of the country - lovers catwalk queen, as well as foreign diplomats, under which the Regina "lay down" on the orders of the Central Committee. This book caused a lot of noise, but for those who became its heroes, everything was relatively quiet, but very Zbarskii several times summoned to the Lubyanka for questioning.
