Warm stories of talented people. Book two

"Stories of talented people. Book Two "is a continuation of the popular series" Warm Stories ", almost all of which have become Ukrainian bestsellers. What's in this book? Life stories of people we know and love.

"Under the cover of the second book" Stories of talented people "- the stories of eleven authors. This time it will be even more difficult for me to answer the question "Why such a selection of heroes and heroines in the book?". I don't know why this is so. Among my eleven heroes and heroines are close friends, and there are those with whom I first met live on the day of the interview. These eleven people are a kind of snapshot of what interested me during the work on the manuscript, from October 2014 to March 2015. Among the stories is what I asked to tell, but there is something I could never have thought of. As in the first book, in these stories you can read the inner plot - as a year ago, it is completely random and appeared and became noticeable only after all the stories were ready. What is this plot?

In my eyes, this cross-cutting story is about the fragility of life and memory. How easily and suddenly death can come. It hurts how quickly and forever you can be devoured by a dictatorial system. How accidentally you can escape. How suddenly everything can be forgotten. And about the lasting matter of our memories - even if you don't even remember what happened. There are also many stories of losses in the stories in this book. Loss of a carefree childhood, loss of inspiration and creativity, loss of illusions, loss of a loved one, loss of familiar surroundings. There is also a lot of homesickness, no matter what the word means in each case. Still - joy and sunny days, unexpected meetings, love. And this is the most important part - hope. Hope. And a lot of work. ”
