A collection of stories “Ribs” by the contemporary Ukrainian writer Platon Besedin was prepared in the days when there was no hysteria over Ukraine yet. Everything changed in a second. And with even greater pleasure, today we announce this book: a simple and at the same time astonishing one.
The main advantage of Platon Besedin is that he is never the same. Today he is flexible and ephemeral like a grapevine, and tomorrow he shocks the public right on the edge of literary farce. Today he is almost a preacher, and tomorrow—a deeply and openly doubtful person. Today he is a clown, and tomorrow—the chief director of a theater called Life.
His stories are pieces of a mosaic, from which each reader is free to assemble their own panel. And most importantly, they are written by the hand of a brilliant master.
