This is an automatically translated description

The novel Petrykor - The Smell of the Earth After the Rain speaks and translates into words the traumas that the flames of war leave in us. But once this pain is transferred to the space of interpersonal existence, the possibility of healing the soul, restoring hope for the future, finding the light that only the Other can give us with his kindness, his vision of our destiny, his love, opens up . War gives birth to leitmotifs that repeat in the lives of thousands of people, just as light repeats in drops of water falling from the sky to the ground.

The work of Volodymyr Rafeyenko helps to bring the characters out of the dead end of personal circumstances to the level of a certain, sometimes too absurd and carnival-like, but still absolutely effective transformation of acute pain into light for the Other who is next to you.
