The anthology includes the works of Ukrainian writers of the late 20th and early 21st centuries, whose lives and works are closely related to Donbas. These authors are from Donetsk region and Luhansk region; writers who lived in Donbas for a long time and paid tribute to it in their work or were rooted in the Donbas land through their work; current residents of Donetsk, most of whom were forced to move to Kyiv, Kharkiv, Lviv, Ivano-Frankivsk and other cities of Ukraine in the tragic 2014, and only a few of them remained in Donetsk.
Academician Ivan Dziuba defines in the preface that the goal of this anthology is, not least, the desire to "challenge the idea of Donetsk region (at least the literary one) as a reserve of "Sovietness": to show an alternative, substantive and aesthetic, to emphasize it."
The texts are presented in the author's edition.
On the cover is the painting by Petro Antypa "Scythian and Amazon".
