Vasil Zemlyak writes about familiar, at first glance, realities: the Ukrainian village 1920-1940s, the revolution, the destruction of noblemen's gardens, the first communes, colleges, the Other World. But everything is presented in a very unpleasant perspective.
Old Babylon on Pobuzhzhi, villagers, who dig under the pear tree a collection of antique weapons, local philosopher, who reads Plato and talks about the Taurians and Skeptics, goydalka, a goydalka, who was set up by an agent selling sewing machines "Zinґer" in order to get her daughters married, a Fabian father who is backed up to the murderous brigade - all this is woven into a chimerical novel on a chortle of a great history.
