Road to Asmara

The novel depicts the horrific events of the man-made famine and war in Ethiopia in 1984-1986. Against the backdrop of this humanitarian catastrophe, the story of a young Ukrainian translator unfolds. He is part of the Soviet aid groups, but gradually uncovers the cynicism and deception that surround him.
This is a story of choice, as the protagonist searches for the meaning of life and his identity. It is also two poignant love stories that blossom in times of brutal change. And it is a family secret that is closely intertwined with the main plot.

A testimonial novel and a panoramic novel, it opens up unspoken pages of the past. This work forces readers to rethink the current events of today.
