Return to Ostrog

In his previous novel ("Red Cross", 2017), Sasha Filipenko widely used real historical documents. In his new work, the depicted reality itself claims the role of a document of the era. For the most skeptical: there is nothing fictional here.... There is a small town where the city-forming enterprise is a prison. There is an orphanage, in the fates of the inhabitants of which a glimmer of happiness has flashed. Situations, heroes, dialogues, and even methods of police torture - all taken from life. And the cursed question of the price of good, which for some reason turns into evil, is also posed by life. More precisely - by death. "Sasha Filipenko belongs to those young authors who immediately became serious writers. If you want to know what modern young Russia thinks, read Filipenko" (Svetlana Alexievich).
