Women of Their Husbands. Old People

Sofia Andruhovych is an author who knows how to look into the soul of her characters. She creates them so deep, unobvious, and convincing that having met them for the first time, you will not forget them and are unlikely to let go, or maybe they won't let you go.

Therefore, the reprinting of two early books by Sofia Andruhovych: the short story collection "Women of Their Husbands" and the short story "Old People" with illustrations by Olena Stelmakh is a return to the stories of unusual and at the same time ordinary women and men, more often women. These are stories about corporeality and identity, boundaries and their absence, love and living, fusion and separation, the search for oneself and within oneself, temptation, seduction, and rejection.

This is a kaleidoscope of women you dream of meeting and want to avoid, as well as the story of one couple who had years behind them, but there was no old age, only great love and the ability to be here and now, living every moment together.
