ISBN 978-5-00139-888-2 The action of the novel "Valsarb" unfolds in a small Belarusian town. The main character is a girl who constantly plays with words. She lives in a world created for her by Pan Bog Ded. The girl is curious and lonely, probably that's why They chose her. They are people who formerly lived in Valsarb but after death remained nameless, without monuments or graves. They follow the girl closely, intrude on her dreams, and do not disappear until they are heard and return their names. "Valsarb" is a poetic story of memory, painful like the first encounter with injustice, poignant like a final attempt to rethink life. The novel features real historical persons and events.
