Pelevin — master korotkogo rasskaza, miniatiurnoi, iziashchnoi i pri etom udivitel'no slozhnoi i emkoi literaturnoi formy, blestiashche poluchavsheisia tol'ko u bezuprechnykh klassikov russkoi slovesnosti. Firmennyi stil' Pelevina — ostroumnyi sintez mistiki i real'nosti, glamura i diskursa, neizmenno tshchatel'naia, virtuoznaia rabota nad kazhdym slovom. Uborshchitsa obshchestvennogo tualeta, chitaiushchaia Blavatskuiu; sarai, mechtaiushchii stat' velosipedom; bezumnyi uchenyi, s"evshii svoiu sobaku vo imia vysshikh sil; nakonets, neotvratimyi ukhriab, podsteregaiushchii cheloveka na kazhdom povorote... vse eto stalo chast'iu nashei zhizni. I chto by ni proiskhodilo — perestroika, perezagruzka, voina, krizis, retsessiia, — my vsegda znaem, chto "...nasha vselennaia nakhoditsia v chainike Liui Dun-Binia, prodaiushchego vsiakuiu meloch' na bazare v Chan'ani". Dazhe esli sam Liui Dun-Bin' davno pochil s mirom i mogila ego zarosla travoi. 
Itak, v vashikh rukakh slepok nashei deistvitel'nosti i kollektsiia malen'kikh shedevrov Bol'shoi literatury kontsa XX — nachala XXI veka.
