This is an automatically translated description

The book is a kind of sequel to the novel The Loneliness of the Prophet, or Ivan Franko's Good Angel. It focuses on two extraordinary personalities - the poet and encyclopaedic scholar Ivan Franko and the spiritual leader of Galicia, Metropolitan Andrey Sheptytsky of the Ukrainian Greek Catholic Church, who had a great influence on the life of Ukrainian society in the late nineteenth century and determined the humanistic direction of its intellectual pursuits for a long time. The novel is written in the form of a kind of confession by the poet to his bishop, by the bishop to the poet, and by both of them to the readers, that is, to the people, for what they have experienced and changed their minds about.
