Михайло Стельмах " Кров людська -не водиця" (Роман)
The novel `Human Blood is Not Water` is one of the best works of the talented Ukrainian writer, Lenin Prize winner Mykhailo Stelmakh. The civil war in Ukraine has broken out, but the battles are still raging - in the Crimea, where Wrangel settled, and on the Vistula, and in Podolsk region, where the chief ataman Petliura retreated, bandits with cut-offs are everywhere. The situation in the village of Novobuhovka is also disappointing... the duel of ideas is what interests the writer the most. With great skill he showed the moral defeat of his ideas in the new world, burning with the desire of people to make the earth free from evil. In his books, the future argues with the past, argues to the end, to a real victory. M.Stelmakh has a special merit in creating a new hero of literature - a man with the heart of a poet.
