Return to Ostrog

In his previous novel ("Red Cross", 2017) Sasha Filipenko widely used real historical documents. In his new work, the depicted reality itself claims the role of a document of the era. For the most incredulous: there is nothing invented here. There is a town where a city -forming enterprise is a prison. There is an orphanage, in the fate of the inhabitants of which a glimpse of happiness flashed. Situations, heroes, dialogs and even methods of police torture - everything is taken from life. And the damned question about the price of good, which for some reason turns evil, is also set by life. More precisely - death. "Sasha Filipenko belongs to those young authors who immediately became serious writers. Want to know what modern young Russia is thinking about, read Filipenko "(Svetlana Aleksievich)
