"The Meeting" is a short story by Ukrainian writer Hryhoriy Kosynka. The story was written in 1920, in which the author skilfully recreated impressions from his life in a narrative form.
In a small poor village, where people with more than three tenths of land were considered rich, the tensman convenes a meeting. People slowly gather. Poor and simple workers, tortured by peasant work. Among them are Petro Tsiupka, a labourer whose health was taken away by hard work at the factory, grandfather Kysil, who has just over three acres of land, and other villagers. The villagers are lively discussing what they should do to avoid paying the rich. And Petro Tsyupka, like many other villagers, supports the Bolshevik programme, which does not represent the interests of ordinary people, where people working hard on their land have to pay their masters. This is the reality of peasant life at the time and the manipulation of their consciousness.
