Roma Dekabrev’s novel, which ended up among the finalists of the “Litsey” award, is a layered picture exploring the inner worlds of people immersed in self-examination and the search for their true calling. The author focuses on an accurate depiction of human emotions and experiences, successfully combining lyricism with existential aspects. The characters’ stories are tightly connected, forming a complex mosaic of real and symbolic—and sometimes almost surreal—events. The contrast between beauty and suffering, dreams and reality creates a complicated and captivating fabric of life. Dialogues reminiscent of Beckett’s style, elusive reality, and a shimmering narrative—these are characteristic of Dekabrev’s prose, and in this book he remains faithful to his style.
