Transport yourself to a country beyond the boundaries of civilization, where civil war rages and armed gangs rule the streets. This is a place of absolute poverty and despair, where the outermost provincial city lies in ruins, a desolate and barren city that resembles hell itself. On a frosty winter morning, Apollo is forced to leave his home by his wife, wandering the empty streets of the devastated city, cold and hungry. Seeking solace in his memories, Apollo recounts a series of surreal and diverse episodes, including a great love story, scenes of bizarre funerals, and countless unbelievable stories that could only have occurred in this forsaken city. Amidst the harshness of this day, Apollo experiences two strange encounters that will change his life forever. The first is a chance meeting with a dog, also abandoned and alone on the streets, who will ultimately save Apollo from certain death. Apollo names the dog Angel and they embark on a journey together. The second encounter is even more profound, as Apollo meets Esma, a person living on the margins of society, excluded from family and community. Esma's story of humiliation, life in a totalitarian empire, and years spent in psychiatric facilities leaves a deep and lasting impression on Apollo, causing him to question everything he once believed. This captivating and haunting tale offers a poignant commentary on the human condition and the power of hope in the midst of darkness. Written with exquisite prose and a deep understanding of the human experience, it is a story that will stay with you long after the final page is turned.

Autorenporträt
Yslar Tatuky was born in 1960 in a small mining town Tqibuli, Republic of Georgia. In 1992 he graduated from Moscow State Art and Cultural University. His time at university coincided with the so called Perestroika and the dissolution of the Soviet Union. These genuinely epochal changes heavily influenced Yslar Tatuky's future life. To overcome economic difficulties and make a living he had to go into business. He inevitably had experienced and endured all the 'delights' of capitalism. In 2007, a group of criminals took over his business, which caused him to spend seven years in courts and police stations; fortunately, Tatuky managed to win the many year battle. Following these events, he returned to Tbilisi, Georgia and started to fulfil his biggest dream. He wrote a screenplay - When God Is Sad (2016), a novel - My Neighbour Osama Bin Laden (2018), and recently, in June 2021, The Man Who Never Contemplated Suicide.
