"What is time if not a whale that swallows everything. How many lives of outstanding Ukrainian turned into that swallowed plankton. It is impossible to snatch them from the oblivion, unless someone living feels the urgent need to remember. In this novel, the renowned forgotten one is Vyacheslav Lypynsky, Ukrainian historian of Polish origin, philosopher and unlucky politician, founder of the Ukrainian monarchism. His life was a continuous sacrifice for the sake of the idea. But the blue whale of the Ukrainian memory devoured him as well. The author narrates the story about this man through a young woman, our contemporary who explores old newspapers to find out her own identity and to come in touch with the past cut out from history as if from movie tape."
