Erosion
by Artem Chapeye
Description
After a young couple returns from their vacation to the Carpathian Mountains in Ukraine, they discover that the world as they once knew it no longer exists. Tragedy happened and survivors are forced to adapt to the harsh conditions of their new reality: overcoming deeply-rooted fears, they try to forge another world where they can unite with those who still retained their humanity. Will the couple be able to survive, make alliances with others, and give birth to a new generation? Will the insidiousness of human nature manifest itself in this new world? Chapeye's post-apocalyptic novel, diluted with beautifully melancholic and black humor, is a kind of artistic study of people's behavior in critical situations when everything that once seemed stable falls apart.
