American scientist of Ukrainian descent Nicholas Bilanchuk, in search of his ethnic identity, finds himself in Leopolis and tries to find and read the mystical seven lion signs he has dreamt about. But Nicholas feels that the key is actually somewhere inside him, somewhere in the web of his brain. And this hidden key is more important than all the metal keys in the world. He is a professor of Slavic studies at Pennsylvania State University. He has published over 30 scholarly articles on literary topics and over 50 translations in periodicals and anthologies. Of the 18 books he has published, the most recent is Olga Sedakova's collection Freedom to Believe: Philosophical and Cultural Essays" (2010) and "The Essential Poetry of Bohdan Ihor Antonych: Ecstasies and Elegies" (2010), published by Bucknell University Press.
