Bohdana Matiyash. rozmovy z Bohom. (talking to the God)
This small book, in fact, is as if some log cabins in fairy-tales. Those, you know, that outside look small, but when you enter them you find there a palace sometimes, and sometimes even a whole country. While in this case – the whole Universe is hidden there... Open, defenseless, soft – but it is for this reason, though it might look paradoxically, that it is very strong. Bohdana Matiyash has managed not to describe, not to convey with words what she wanted to say. Instead, her words – so simple, transparent and frank – have turned into the door opening into the warm heart and – through it – probably, into infinity... "Talking to the God" is such honest, deep, true intimacy that one almost fails to believe: is it really a book of the 21st century? That restless and inattentive one where we are living – really? And do we live, indeed? But here, right in front of you, is a proof of true life, as it seems to me. In which there is, for example, the desire to search – and the ability to find. Not necessarily answers – possibly, just ways. But a way is also, in the end, an answer...

Kateryna Kalytko. Orden movchalnyts. (The Order of the Silent)


The portrait of a Ukrainian woman more often presents her being silent than when she is talking. But without the experience of this silence, there would be no voice that sounds in this collection. The voice that defends the right to speak sincerely about acute grief, generational traumas, the courage of love..

Borys Khersonsky. Kosmosnash.
