Other songs: Yatsek Dukai

Jerome Bermebelk was known as a great commander. However, during the siege of the city, he was broken and almost lost his own personality and will to life. Maybe now, having met again with his growing children, whom he had not seen for many years, he will be able to find himself the same – on a campaign in Africa, the country of golden cities and shapeless creatures, in the heart of the black continent, where disgusting miracles and terrifying beauty are born …
“Other songs” can be read in many ways: as an adventure novel, fantasy, science fiction or philosophical treatise. In each case, this will turn out to be an amazing and attractive reading, where the author, together with the reader, will look for answers to the questions: is it possible to know something that is better – by force to impose his own form by the unknown or to give in and change yourself?
