The core of the plot is the clash of two life positions: active and contemplative. The old world, symbolized by the described estate, where people live in harmony with nature, is becoming a thing of the past. He is succumbing to the onslaught of a “civilization of ephemeral values” based on two innovations: profit and the automobile. The first deprives people of humanity - they stop looking at the stars and those living next to them on Earth, and the second - rushes past, scaring people and animals with the noise of the engine.

The collection was translated into Polish and published long before Fyodor Sologub began to be published again in Russia. And only in 2004 the most complete eight-volume collection of his works was published.

The collection awakens interest in short stories as a genre. Some of the stories are philosophical, some are satirical.
