Nina Bichuya made her debut in the sixties together with Yevhen Hutsal, Grigor Tyutyunnik, Valery Shevchuk. This book collects her most famous works "Drohobytsky Star", "Stone Master", "Carpet with Three Flowers" and others.
Before us, as if in a kaleidoscope, the events of the history of Ukraine appear: the Haydamaks, who were driven from Uman to Lviv after their defeat, the reign of Prince Danylo Halytskyi, the life of Lesya Ukrainka, the death of Stalin. But the focus of the writer is not so much the historical background as the question: what do people living in that period feel, how do these historical events affect them, and how does a person see himself in history? Does the fear of the tyrant remain when he himself dies? What could Lesya Ukrainka have been like? After all, how does a writer open up, retrieving the painful memories of his life?
Thus, historical plots are intertwined with simple sketches from life, creating a background for a dialogue about historical and personal experience.
