& quot; Port of Zitana & quot; & ndash; cozy restaurant on the shores of picturesque Lake Geneva. At various times, it became a special place for Mark Mazur, a Ukrainian émigré artist best known for his avant-garde works in interwar Paris, and Serhiy Kovalenko, an art critic who collected a collection for an influential Kyiv oligarch and tried to unravel the mystery of his mysterious disappearance. & quot; Port of Zitana & quot; & ndash; it is a novel in which history is closely intertwined with modernity, and art & ndash; with human destinies and relationships. It is a novel about forced escape and inevitable return, fake & laquo; love & raquo; and true love, about the daily choices made by man.
From the official release & nbsp; & laquo; Meridian Czernowitz & raquo;
The idea to write a work came to the author a few years so in Geneva at an art exhibition before the auction. & nbsp; & laquo; I noticed a big album, & nbsp; & ndash; says the writer, & ndash; & nbsp; owned by Serge Lifar. He unwrapped it and saw real treasures: drawings by Picasso, Cocteau, Matisse and other artists with dedications and humorous wishes to a prominent Kyivan. So I realized that you can always come across a real treasure of culture, and that this album is the beginning of my new novel. Then he learned about the mysterious warehouses in Geneva, talked for hours with art dealers and painters & hellip; Finally, all the puzzles have developed into a story that has been enthusiastically received by the first readers of & hellip; & raquo;. & Nbsp;
& laquo; What do bohemian life in Paris in 1922-1946 and events have in common? in Kyiv 2010-2014 and the illusory quiet life in Geneva today? & nbsp; & ndash; the author asks. & ndash; & nbsp; Different cities and times are united by the mysterious life and destiny of the Ukrainian emigrant artist Mark Mazur and his missing collection of paintings. The heroes of the novel will find themselves in a whirlpool of events, when the past does not let go of the present and every day we have to choose between honor and betrayal, morality and meanness & hellip; & raquo ;.
