Эта книга раскрыла мне фантаста Кира Булычёва с новой стороны, т.к. сюжет скорее не фантастический, а реальный.

Действие происходит в последние годы СССР. Обычный промышленный городок, небольшой, серый и скучный. Но от других провинциальных городков он отличается экологической обстановкой «ниже плинтуса»: воду такая мерзкая, что её трудно пить; да и дышать трудно. Жители болеют, некоторые пытаются пробиться с этой проблеме к «хозяевам города» – партийным бонзам и директорам химических производств. Эффект предсказуем: «прикормленная» СЭС нарушений не находит.

И в этот момент город посещает московский журналист Шубин с циклом лекций «о загнивающем Западе». Он равнодушен к проблемам города (хотя и не отказывается передать письмо «зеленых» в Москву) и равнодушно «отрабатывает программу», после которой ему обещана командировка за границу.

По стечению обстоятельств, именно в этот момент химические выбросы разных производств смешиваются, образуя смертоносный желтый туман. Он расползается по долине, в которой расположен город. Только жители верхних этажей (например, Шубин и другие постояльцы гостиницы) пока имеют шансы на спасение. Но туман продолжает заполнять город…

Очень интересно и правдоподобно написано, характеры людей и порядки в городе узнаваемы, действие закручивается так, что невозможно отложить книгу – умом и сердцем ты там, в этом городе. Перед тобой разворачивается история равнодушия, самопожертвования, предательства, любви.

Неоднозначная книга, но для меня одна из лучших у автора. Людям почаще надо читать такие книги – не очень позитивные, даже тяжёлые, показывающие людей с другой, не «парадной» стороны. Нам полезно время от времени шевелить мозгами и читать не только фэнтази, а и вот такую непростую фантастику.

Читала в бумажном варианте, книга приятно удивила, российские реалии, настоящие, живые герои и очень интересный сюжет. Увлекла с первой страницы.

Книга потрясающая. Удручает только то, что текст книги на данном сайте содержит досаточно много орфографических ошибок (местами пропущены буквы, местами они перепутаны), а кроме того в книге встречаются повторяющиеся абазцы.

Как тяжело пробиваться через железобетонную стену цензуры и власти. Шкурные интересы правящего класса и отсутствие независимых источников информации или прессы позволяют совершать бесчеловечные поступки, а система круговой поруки их покрывать. Обидно, что за 30 лет минувшие с момента издания книги, в нашей стране вопрос экологии и защиты природы (а человек ее часть) остается без должного внимания.

Смерть этажом ниже это злободневно, остро и правдиво.

Больше всего меня впечатлили сержант Коля, который смог проявить человеколюбие и порядочность в царстве лжи и интриг и Руслан, готовый жертвовать собой ради других!
