The Lamp of Methuselah, or the Final Battle of Chekists with Masons (Lampa Mafusaila)

Three generations of the noble Mozhaisky family serve the Fatherland in the 19th, 20th, and 21st centuries.
The novel consists of four interconnected parts: the industrial story 'The Gold Bug,' presented as a memoir of the financial analyst Krimpay Mozhaisky, our contemporary; the space drama 'Mozhaisky's Airplane,' which describes battles of a universal scale unfolding in the basement of the estate of a modest retired officer, Markian Mozhaisky; a historical essay by Professor Golgotha ​​'Temple Camp,' based on the reports of Methuselah Mozhaisky about the construction of the Masonic Temple of Solomon behind barbed wire; and, finally, an operational study 'Kapustin's Feat,' where the action is almost entirely taken to the hero's dream.
'All spiritual objects flickering today in the humanitarian universe are made of money. And the main—or rather, the only—question of philosophy these days is: what is money made of? But philosophers are smart guys and keep their mouths shut about it.'
