Russian writer Boris Akun's novel "Black City" will be doubly interesting for Azerbaijani readers. Because the events in the work take place in Baku, Black City, Yasamal, Icherisheher, Bibiheybet.
The work describes the old Baku. It is felt that the author has well studied that period, the socio-political, demographic situation of Baku, the luxurious life of people who got rich with oil fountains.
In addition, the work fully describes the fact that Baku is a remote provincial city of Russia, and the relations between Armenians and Azerbaijanis living here.
It becomes clear that although Baku is a remote city of the Russian Empire, life here is more expensive than in Moscow, Petersburg and Tbilisi. Billions are circulated here, so it is the center of attention of both the empire itself and foreign countries. At that time, newly organized revolutionary parties also wanted to take their share from the millions in Baku and use the power of the working class here.
The hero of the work, Erast Petrovich Fandorin, comes to Baku to neutralize a skilled and invincible revolutionary-terrorist, and from the moment he gets off the train, endless adventures come to him.
One of the most interesting characters in the novel "Black City" is the ram Kara Gasim. He accompanies Fandori from the first day to the last, and in the end is known to be the most unexpected character of the work.
Most likely, the conclusion reached as a summary of the work is not based on any historical document and is purely a product of the writer's imagination, but it can be understood from the work that the main reason for the start of the First World War was an action of Kara Gasim. If he doesn't do it, the world war will be prevented...
