Публикувани са почти по едно и също време - в 1865 и 1866 година, съответно в две далечни една от друга земи: кралство Великобритания и царска Русия. Но докато четях Clair de lune, усещах как думите завихрят познати картини и споделени събития от моя живот (без оглед на национална принадлежност), а синкопираният слог на разказвачката ме тегли през тунела на времето към преживяното от поне три поколения на съдбовния XX век.
