The Little Golden Calf

Ostap-Suleyman-Berta-Maria-Bender-Bey, or just Ostap Ibragimovich Bender, the great schemer and the son of the Turkish subject survived in a fabulous way when in "the Twelve chairs" after the assassination attempt by Ippolit Matveyevich "Kisa" Vorobyaninov. In "the Little Golden Calf" Ostap again tries to catch the chance given by the destiny and to fulfill his heart`s desire. It is simple, romantic and almost childishly attractive. Bender wants to become rich and leave for Rio de Janeiro, the city, in which they can dance and wear white trousers. To do that he only needs to find the underground soviet millionaire and just a bit "tweak" him. He finds such a millionaire -it is Alexandr Ivanovich Koreiko. Judging from his appearance - he is just a grey mouse. He is just a civil servant. But in fact.
