Oleksii HEDEONOV is a writer who knows the history of Ukraine very deeply. And this knowledge simply shouted that the invasion was inevitable. That's why the family had stockpiled food and medicine in advance. Even alcohol, which could become something of a currency in difficult times. Not far from his house is a TV tower that was the target of Russian attacks. And the blow that shook the earth still remains in his memory.

Oleksii also worked on books.  And despite the distance of a thousand years, they resonated with the present. Peace, war, civilisations and barbarians.
