This is an automatically translated description

This book is read from the first to the last page with unrelenting interest. The reader sees the unvarnished life of the tsarist cashier's office, the terrible pictures of the First World War, and the Union for the Liberation of Ukraine, shown with warmth but without excessive idealisation. O. Kobets is undoubtedly the greatest pacifist in our literature. There is no artificial plot in the book, but the lyricism and deep humanity that permeate all the chapters of the work give it an internal harmony. After reading the book, the reader will be enriched with knowledge, experience a lot and change their minds. «Notes of a Prisoner» is a unique and unrivalled thing from the point of view of art and documentary.
