The novel "The Sealed" is an almost true story about the twelve-year-old Asho, who actually grows up on the street. The father is a frightened prisoner, already dead, the mother indulges in bed pleasures with her bottle brothers. The only one who tries to instill virtue in the boy is the grandmother, but her hands and time are too short. Asho grows up misunderstood, unsupported and unloved and naturally seeks all this on the street. And found in unfavorable company, gambling and drugs. What this ultimately leads to and what the moral of the story is, the reader learns at the very end, when the narrator's identity is revealed.
The novel is permeated by poignant life situations and revelations, which serve as a signpost for the reader and remind us that each of us is given a choice - how to live, what to do or not to do. A special feature is the author's almost lyrical digressions, which are revealed in the text as the main character's reflections on the order of life and values.
P.S. Asho has a real prototype, but some of the events and situations described are only the author's interpretation of how it might have happened in reality.
