Ekaterina Koksharova, a Russian writer and journalist from Chelyabinsk, skillfully combines deep psychological insight with elements of fairy-tale magic in her works. In the book “The Call of the Copper Mountain,” Ural myths boldly merge with elements of the modern city, while ancient legends are brought to life through the life of an ordinary person who must realize that not all miracles carry goodness. After being betrayed by his wife, Yaroslav goes to his childhood home to his brother, trying to find inner peace. The path back to his native places becomes a test in which he faces his own fears and uncovers the secret of a mysterious malachite stone. Encountering mystical forces and other seekers of the artifact, he realizes that a special role is destined for him.
