- Summary:
- "Donetsk, the black gem of Ukraine-Eden and Sodom in one, a stew steaming with coal fever, Manifest Destiny of Europe's east: the reader is sent onto a double Odyssey of two adventurers, the fiery blacksmith Alexander and the elusive linguist Lisa, whose paths are destined to cross on the cusp of the war in the Donbas. Only one of them fathoms that their encounter goes far beyond its face-value purpose. A thriller, a romance, a CV, a rose of historical winds, a song of crafts, an ontology of Eastern-Ukrainian mind in one, Carbon: Song of Crafts is told in polyphonic verse-a prayer for the beloved, anguished city"-- Provided by publisher.
