Buy Book "24.02" in Ukrainian

I bought this book a long time ago, when it first came out (I follow the author after reading her previous book, a detective story). But for a very long time I could not open the first page. And when I did, I read it all night, laughing, crying, and, I confess, gloating over the misfortunes and ineptitude of the enemy.

If you, like me, have already bought it and are afraid to remember, don’t be afraid, open it and read it. This is our life and our hopes.

The book is actually very truthful and emotional, and most importantly, it gives hope. So today we can drink to Ryma Vasylivna’s health :), and after the Victory we can go to Sofia to visit one interesting place, which is described in a short but really enchanting story from the book.

It took me a long time to decide to read it because, frankly, I didn’t want to relive something that still hurts and is still our everyday life… But the book is not about pain. It is very lively, very truthful, and after reading it, I did not want to cry, there was no sadness in my heart. It gives me hope.

In general, the book has an interesting emotional structure (three stories with three emotional shades). From a tragedy that shocks, through black humor that evokes sinister laughter, and then the author takes the reader to the love of life, which neither war nor the occupiers can kill.

The book is 100% worthy and easy to read. In my opinion, everyone should read it, because it is high-quality fiction about what was and is really happening.

The book left a whole range of emotions. The author’s style is “laughter through tears,” which is presented with tremendous depth. I was particularly impressed by the story “Stolen Spring”, which is the key story among the three novels. It is both tragic and witty, and here the grotesque balances on such a delicate edge that you admire the author’s skill without unnecessary pathos. The novel has a very strong imagery of “friends” and “foes”, which might seem hyperbolic at first glance, but in today’s realities is incredibly true. The book is for everyone who remembers how scary it was on February 24, 2022.
