Farewell Forever!

Maria Metlitskaya is a recognized master of short prose. Every one of her stories is a small life that the listener lives along with the heroes.

Life without close people is impossible. Even if you consider yourself self-sufficient, self-contained, and independent, there will still come a moment when you want to share, to cry, to ask for advice. Or simply to be silent with someone who understands you and accepts you.

But how do you find close people? And are those who are close by blood always close in spirit? How do you divide the world into your own and strangers? Is there an ideal formula?

Maria Metlitskaya doesn’t derive that formula; she doesn’t have ready-made recipes or answers to all questions. She just tells stories—about those who found a kindred soul, about those who are still searching, and about those who, for different reasons, are doomed to loneliness.
