The long-awaited new novel by the leading Ukrainian writer Maria Matios is a piercing, deep and daring saga of 225 years, passed through the cross stories of five families of different social levels and status, as well as historical characters, somehow connected with Bukovina. Farmers, pastoralists, soldiers, ambassadors and ministers are full-fledged creators not only of private but also of European history. No wonder the author defined the genre of her work as a novel-panorama. The geography of his events stretches from the tiny Bukovinian hamlet of Siruk to Vienna, Berlin, Bucharest, Moscow and Bern. And the frame of this classic novel is a special plot from the village of Luhansk in the summer of 2014. And as always in the books of Maria Mathios, a separate character is the language with its unique lexical luxury and Hutsul charm.
