Jaroslav Melnik. Chomu ja ne vtomlyujusya zhyty. (Why I Do Not Get Tired of Living)
"A mother whose brain is transplanted into a new body becomes twice younger that her son; a scientist destroys the world to meet God; a TV reporter suddenly gets transformed into a character of a writer's work. And again: where does God live? What is the truth, and what is lie? Is not the sky above us a hologram? These and other questions are the focus of the new book of prose by the unique Ukrainian author who lives between Lithuania and France."
"Some strange predictions, virtually prophecies, hidden under the fanciful plots... Yaroslav Melnyk incredibly convincingly raises questions about the taboos that restrict the human freedom." LIRE, France
