Книга «The Fiance»

Over a certain period, while on frequent business trips, the author communicated with various people and observed that many of them lacked faith in themselves, in a comradely shoulder, in the power of goodness. This prompted the author to describe in the genre of a phantasmagorical novel — the story of the struggle between good and evil, based on a Ukrainian folk tale that was passed down from generation to generation in his family.

Oleksandr nursed his idea to write a novel for many years. However, the final decision came to him during the large-scale Russian invasion of Ukraine (February 24, 2022). Exactly then Oleksandr, a resident of the northern outskirts of the capital, where the route to Irpin, gutted by the enemy, together with his friends began to help those people, who remained or could not leave, in particular persons from the most unprotected representatives of population — the elderly, the disabled, and the sick. What he saw with his own eyes, what he directly participated in, what he understood and felt became the starting point for writing the novel. In his book, as in life, a person makes his own choice, chooses his own path and ultimately wins over the dark forces.

In addition to many friends throughout Ukraine, Oleksandr has many acquaintances who, for various reasons, have moved abroad recently or long ago. Let The Fiance be useful to them as good news from the Motherland. Oleksandr hopes that his book will ignite spiritual strength, drive and confidence for the best in the soul of his readers.

In the future plans of the author — work on the completion of the screenplay of a full-length feature film based on the novel, as well as the continuation of the adventures of his heroes in The Fiance 2.
