Atmosphere, love, new worlds—everything is in Anastasia Yevlakhova’s new fantasy novel “Beauty.”
Mora is an exception in a world where all people are equally beautiful. Her face is disfigured, and she dreams of getting rid of her ugly scar. But instead of plastic surgery on the day of her coming of age, she receives a ticket to the world of the elite. She’s been admitted to the best university on the island! Only, Mora is consumed not by studying, but by strange visions of another world and a charming boy with the wrong facial features…
Thousands of miles away, a young researcher, Ray, is dreaming of creating the perfect human. And he’s almost succeeding! Iza is 99% perfect. But that one percent can ruin everything: Iza runs away, and now the existence of Ray’s people is in danger.
Following Iza on his flying tortoise, he reaches an island of perfectly beautiful people. Can Ray be the very boy from Mora’s dreams? What goals is he pursuing? Why did Iza lose control and start destroying everything in her path?
