In her next novel, Maryna Levytska, with her usual humour and a touch of life's bitterness, touches upon the topic of the collision of the past with the present (and at the same time with the future), each of which has both dark and bright sides. And a London house built after the Second World War, designed by one of the pioneers of British modernism, Berthold Lubetkin, becomes a kind of crossroads where the fates of different characters converge and diverge, even to the point of unexpectedness.
