Oleksiy Chupa. Kazky moho bomboskhovyscha. (Tales of My Bomb Shelter)
"A typical entrance into an ordinary house in a residential area. Four floors. Twelve apartments. Who lives behind their doors? Philosophers and alcoholics, scientists and adventurers, looser gentlemen and gentlewomen, confused daredevils and ladies in love – in short, the most common and yet unique people. Such as everywhere. Twelve stories – funny and sad, happy and painful, crazy and routine – like pieces of mosaics, composing one ordinary day of Donbass residents. One day of still peaceful life... Who could guess that so few of them were in store, and that soon the author of this book would be in a bomb shelter, hiding from "Grad" with his characters?"
