Winds, Angels and People

In the new book “Winds, Angels, and People,” Max Fry takes you on a journey through strange, mysterious, and yet—somehow—familiar places. Read it and the world will become different. And this other world won’t let you go…

It’s a story of life—of the most diverse people—in the most unexpected manifestations: they travel, love, meet New Year, divorce, and meanwhile talk about what matters most. Can you hide from death? How can you learn to trust people again? Where does childhood go? For these and many other questions, the author doesn’t give direct answers, but invites the reader to find solutions independently by immersing themselves in the allegorical novel “Winds, Angels, and People.”

Christmas fairs in Helsinki, a magical coffee shop in Riga, the green waters of Venice, and Lithuanian rains plunge the heroes into priceless memories—and some of them even become real. Someone tricks death and receives “letters from the other world” from a best friend; someone heals a damaged hand only through faith in their own strength and trust in the doctor; another case, quite by accident, turns out to be visiting a close friend at exactly the right time—and all of that saves you from boredom and despair. The heroes break away from ordinary life to somewhere unknown, and the only guide for them is their own heart. Human kindness lets you see angels in people, and the wind helps you find yourself in this difficult world.
