I can see list of "A" books on reader when I turn on device, moving through that list, select any and read - everything as usually. But within some books is error and when I reach certain page, the device stuck or I get giberrish characters.
Also when reader is plugged into computer, I can see files in documents folder.
I can erase any file, I can add another book, no matter if I do that via direct copy/paste to document folder, or via calibre.
There is one exception: in calibre if I go to "Device > Show books in the main memory of the device", select them all and let them erase, the list of books went completely empty in calibre, but after look into Kindle via Windows Explorer, some books still stay there. But then I can erase them manually via Explorer.
Then I load into calible completely different pack of books, let's call it "B" package. Let calible load them into device - no problem. After unplug device, all books from "B" package appear normally, I can see them on reader. However, I cannot read some of them. Not all, just some. Others working perfectly until last page. So once I select to read the one which is unreadable, it load first page and then whole device stuck. I cannot do anything, except reset. And aftere that - all books from previous package "A" are back, no any book from "B".
So except those wrong books it seems everything working normally, until device is reset. Whole "A" group of books are back, anything I load later are gone.

Most of what is confusing you is that you are looking at cached items, or items that have been deleted from the cache (only).
The device that provides the actual storage has gone bad.
The Kindle does have storage system repair ability, you will need a wall charger, a known good usb cord and patience.
USB cable, PC to Kindle -
At top of visible USB storage, place the following filename (note: you may have to do this several times, until you happen to hit a working spot in the storage device):
DO_FACTORY_RESTORE
No extension, be certain that your PC OS does not add an extension.
All capitals.
No contents.
Disconnect USB cable, re-boot Kindle.
If the filename you added was actually written to the device, and found during the re-boot start-up, the Kindle will enter a file system repair operation.
The Kindle display will look as if the Kindle is frozen showing the boy under the tree.
If it proceeds past that point in only a few minutes, the "DO_FACTORY_RESTORE" file name was not actually written to the device.
Repeat trying to put the name on the device and re-booting, again.
Once it seems to be stuck showing the boy under the tree, put it on a wall charger and wait.
The file system test and repair is very slow, it will take from days to a week or two to complete. Keep it on the charger the entire time.
