This is an automatically translated description

The novels and short stories by Tatiana Bonch-Osmolovskaya, a Russian-speaking writer living in Australia, are full of allusions, semantic games, and paradoxes. They are a kind of literary quests, and the maps to them do not always correspond to the maps of our world. Have you ever thought, for example, about what the twentieth century would have looked like without the Soviet Union, the Third Reich, and the Second World War? What would have happened if the people who inhabited the spaces from the Black Sea to the Pacific Ocean had chosen a different path at the fork in the road centuries ago? Tetyana Bonch-Osmolovska's prose, accentuated by her philological experience, is a kind of portal that takes the reader into these worlds.
