This is an automatically translated description

The Shining Path is the beginning of a great adventure epic that has been incarnated as a literary quadrilogy. Ahead are one and a half thousand pages of pulsating adventures and a smooth flow of the plot from the text of the book to the next series of the life Odyssey, namely the novels The Aesthetics of Begging, Pilgrims in the Night, and Protocols of Lost Dreams. It is not surprising that the atmosphere of these works is determined by the tone and stylistic order of The Shining Path.

It is here, from the first pages of the book, that the film focuses on controversial types of heroes of our time: participants in political and criminal adventures, decision-makers, intellectual warriors, underground fighters. A parallel dimension of the plot is a detective knot of events around the paintings. In addition, the author gives a thorough excursion into art history.

The halo of events and protagonists spreads across the Ukrainian realities of the 1990s and ends in the last book of the quadrilogy with their deaths in the Ilovaisk trap in 2014. The figures inscribed in the textual landscape affirm adrenaline and risk as the basis of a great life style. That's why they are not interested in the moral component of their actions, because the main law of their inner world is expressed by the thesis "style is higher than truth."
