This is an automatically translated description
The work Devil's Rock was written in 1983 and finished in 1984. Therefore, it is not the result of today's changes in the Soviet Union. Two reviewers expressed their views on the book: one said it was a master's work; the other considered it a simplification of the underground struggle.
The Devil's Rock cannot be considered a literary and journalistic work (although the author sees it as such) because it does not contain a chronology of events and not all the characters are true to life. The literary nature of the work lies in the transfer of the struggle for the freedom of the nation, starting with the Spring of Nations, through the militant groups of the Kholm region, Polissya, Volyn, and the actions of Galicia, including the facts of some militant actions in the 1940s, although the culmination point is the assassination of the Polish Minister of the Interior in 1934, in the capital of the occupier. Actually, the author considers this particular fact to be a state act.
The current appearance of this literary work was not intended as a brake on the rapprochement of the Polish and Ukrainian, two Slavic peoples. «Devil's Rock» is probably the first literary work with the theme of the underground struggle of the 20s and 40s in Western Ukraine. This book is published with the intention of honouring the memory of those who perished and those who were co-creators of the action.
