Villa in San-Fursysko

This is a warm, witty, and heartfelt novel about a woman who has grown tired of putting her life on hold and finally dares to fulfill a long-cherished dream: to buy an old cottage in the countryside and turn it into a place of comfort, freedom, and new beginnings. Olya Synychka imagines an idyllic life of dew-soaked grass, a beautiful house, and rural peace, but reality proves far more chaotic — and far more amusing. The weeds are enough to drive her to despair, the neighbors know no boundaries, her relatives never miss a chance to tease her, and her friends’ excessive concern keeps giving rise to one absurd situation after another. It is a bright and tender story about family, friendship, self-discovery, the right to be happy here and now, and perhaps even love.
