The White Guard
From the album “Illustrations by Sergei Chepik”
No, you will suffocate in such a country and at such a time. To the devil with it! A myth. Petliura is a myth. He didn't exist at all. It's a myth, as remarkable as the myth of the never-existent Napoleon, but far less beautiful. Something else happened. This very peasant's wrath needed to be lured along some single road, for it is arranged so magically in this world that no matter how far he runs, he always fatally ends up at the same crossroads. It's very simple. Just have a riot, and people will be found.
