ILLEGAL USE OF NARCOTICS, PSYCHOTROPIC SUBSTANCES, AND THEIR ANALOGUES HARMS HEALTH; THEIR ILLEGAL TRAFFICKING IS PROHIBITED AND ENTAILS LIABILITY ESTABLISHED BY LAW. "The Angelic Horn" is the third and final part of Dina Rubina's saga "Napoleon's Wagon." Aristarkh and Nadezhda, who were struck by a love so powerful that not everyone can withstand it, were scattered by fate in different directions. Both had to follow their own—separate from each other—paths: risky, dangerous. And finally, they met. Twenty-five years spent apart proved their love was alive. But fate again tested them. This novel must be read because: 1. It is the concluding part of the trilogy. 2. A narrative full of unexpected twists about the heroes' journey to each other. 3. Revealing the mystery of Bugero, who accompanied Napoleon's wagon. 4. Magnificent style that makes readers want to revisit many scenes of the novel. 5. The only novel in modern Russian literature about Great Love. 1. "The Angelic Horn" is the third concluding part of the novel "Napoleon's Wagon." After 25 years of separation, Aristarkh and Nadezhda finally meet. Each carries the burden of trials and roads they had to travel alone, risking their lives to reach each other. Aristarkh voluntarily confined himself as a prison doctor. If not for his attachment to his friend's three red-haired daughters and faith in meeting his beloved Dylda, he might have died three times. Nadezhda built a publishing business that was dangerous, gangster-ridden, and bloody in the turbulent '90s. After escaping death, she was forced to cease independent publishing. And so, seemingly, Orpheus and Eurydice destined for each other reunited, a new — happy — life dawned. But fate prepared a tragic finale. 2. That Dina Rubina's "Napoleon's Wagon" is "Shakespeare and Monte Cristo" of our days (as Nadezhda's neighbor Izum said about the heroes' fate) becomes clear after reading the third part "The Angelic Horn." Daily danger at the prison doctor's work and rivalry in the book business, unexpected meetings and incredible characters, blood vengeance and accidental murder, the legacy of the Napoleonic war and the tangled story of a found bag with valuables—the novel's dynamism is overwhelming, with so many plot twists they take your breath away. And the love of Aristarkh Bugrov and the Fire Girl, his Nadezhda, reaches such unattainable heights after which ordinary life seems unthinkable. 3. Dina Rubina's "Napoleon's Wagon" has no happy ending. Its impossibility was felt from the very first volume. But "The Angelic Horn," the trilogy's final part, elevates the novel to a tragedy. A blend of sorrow, beauty, Love, Life, and Death, its finale resembles the closing notes of "Orpheus and Eurydice" by Gluck, once played in honor of the Fire Girl by Stashek Bugrov on the English horn. 4. Dina Rubina's "Napoleon's Wagon" is perhaps the only true great modern novel about Great Love. Its heroes—Aristarkh and Nadezhda—were made for each other, possessing a rare talent for love bestowed on few. Few can endure such love. Their lives have been shaken, spun, and lifted to the crest of the ninth wave. Modern Orpheus and Eurydice had to fight fate. They could not live together, but death united them.
