Abstract
In the first part of his novel about the adventures of the soldier Chonkin as well as in the utopian novel Moscow-2042, V. Voinovich utilizes the metaphor of the making and consumption of the so called “secondary product” to the purpose of asking one of the most important questions of modern human existence: how far is the distance between an odd, ridiculous person focused on faeces and a society, the foundation of which in many aspects possesses the quality of excrements.
