The events of the famous novel "Apothecary" by the leading Ukrainian writer Yuriy Vynnychuk take place in 1646-1648, first in the Republic of Venice and then in Lviv. The historical background is skilfully used for an exciting game of real-false, where historical characters coexist with fictional ones, and their complex relationships are formed into love triangles. Fantasy descriptions sound like real, and the author's fiction recedes into the background, forcing the reader to believe in a world woven from a dream.
The prose of Yuriy Vynnychuk is always an intriguing story, thanks to the stormy imagination of the master of exquisite stylizations.
