Modern & contemporary fiction (post c 1945)
Strange People
by Artem Chapeye
Description
Ukrainian scientists have reproduced Neanderthal DNA. One of the representatives of this species, Stepan Vovk, grows up in a secret institute disguised as a garage. He is released form the institute after reaching adulthood. Due to the lack of life experience and mental peculiarities, the Neanderthal constantly finds himself in strange situations. He looks at the local homo sapiens through the eyes of a somewhat naive outsider. The story is a tragicomedy about our contemporary world.
