      The Wall

      by Andriy Tsaplienko

      In the fantastic novel by Andriy Tsaplienko, the reader faces two post-apocalyptic societies where one confidently paves the way for progressive development, and the other degrades. The author is convinced that mentality and everlasting traditions change very little over the centuries. The novel heroes, Ukrainians, and Russians, who bear bright national traits, are in constant tense antagonism. Their war goes on at several levels — from armed conflicts to clashes of souls and inner convictions. And the Wild Fields that remain after big and small confrontations are like unhealed wounds, cancer tumors: they continue to bleed, demonstrating to humanity that war produces only the war.
