"The author is a former resident of Lviv, and now a resident of Krakow, a Ukrainian with Polish roots. The house with stained glass and the stained glass as such were "born" in 1912, Lviv, four generations of women (great-grandmother, grandmother, mother, and daughter), a slice of the cultural and political life during formation of the Ukrainian statehood (Solomiya Krushelnytska and the liberation struggle, Vyacheslav Chornovil and his ally, opera singer Marianna) – these are elements of the exciting, intriguing love story: nobody has even written about Lviv in this way so far."
