This is an automatically translated description

The stories and novellas included in this collection belong to one of the most prominent Ukrainian writers of the "executed revival" period, Hryhoriy Kosyntsi (1899-1934). They are distinguished from the works of other authors primarily by their laconicism and perfect simplicity of narration. From the very first paragraphs, the writer reveals the essence of the events and their inner tension. Depicting acutely conflictual situations, social, political, moral conflicts in the Ukrainian village, shaken by the revolution and civil war, without looking for the guilty and the innocent, H. Kosynka tries to honestly comprehend the truth - each of the characters has his own.
