Жена лейтенанта Коломбо

"Kniga "Zhena leĭtenanta Kolombo" - sbornik pʹes, chastʹ kotorykh napisana v forme aktërskogo monologa, chto delaet ikh prakticheski neotlichimymi ot ispovedalʹnoĭ prozy. Nesmotri︠a︡ na to, chto pʹesy Moskvinoĭ s uspekhom idut na peterburgskikh i moskovskikh st︠s︡enakh i khorosho izvestny teatralam, bolʹshinstvo predstavlennykh v sbornike dramaturgicheskikh proizvedeniĭ publikuetsi︠a︡ vpervye. Moskvinu, kak Ostrovskogo i Chekhova, mozhno i nuzhno chitatʹ "glazami" - sochnyĭ i koloritnyĭ i︠a︡zyk ee pʹes t︠s︡enen uzhe sam po sebe, bez st︠s︡enicheskoĭ podporki. V chëm teperʹ kazhdyĭ imeet vozmozhnostʹ ubeditʹsi︠a︡."--Title page verso. The book "Lieutenant Colombo's wife" is a collection of plays, some of which are written in the form of an actor's monologue, which makes them almost indistinguishable from confessional prose.
