Notes from the Darkness

Before you is a work of art, an artifact of our harsh era. Ilya Shakursky is yet another hero of our time, another political prisoner. An anti-fascist and leftist activist from Penza, a figure in the so-called "Network Case" (details of the case and Ilya's speech are in our collection "Not the Last Words"). "Start of the sentence - October 2017. End of the sentence - 2033," writes Shakursky. Just think about it: the beginning of 2017. The end of the sentence - 2033. Comrades of Ilya prepared this collection for printing in a small edition. And they almost prepared it. But during the search, the computer with the book layout was confiscated. We publish this book from the miraculously preserved copy, without correcting mistakes and changing anything.
