The Perfect Monastery collection completes Stanislav Senkin's cycle of Athos stories. The first two books - "The Stolen Relics" and "Repentance of Ahasuerus" - went through several reprints in a short time. Stanislav Senkin lived for three years on Mount Athos. In his stories, the author, without avoiding modern artistic techniques, tells about the life of a unique "monastic republic". Filled with humour, love and subtle knowledge of the life of the Athonite mountaineers, the new collection of stories will be of interest to both the church-going reader and the neophyte who is just beginning to be interested in Orthodoxy.
