Diary 2021-2022
Дзённiк 2021-2022
About the life of a Belarusian in Belarus from the beginning of March 2021 to the end of February 2022.
Pain, love, hope, anxiety, leaving, staying, friends, loneliness, dreams, (in)security, coffee on the balcony, knocking on the door… A transcript of the feelings of the author, who is trying to live life after 2020, but cannot do it.
“Diary” is a chronicle of the country’s psychological breakdown. The time of overturned destinies and burned-out feelings gives rise to a special literature, uncomfortable and disturbing. Here the author’s becomes general. Therefore, without a name, about everyone in the first person.
“It’s very difficult to write — everything, stupor. Our current context adds to the senselessness — it seems that you can’t write about anything else. As if you are betraying yourself if you continue to live and write about some things that are disconnected from our situation. But how do you weave this violence and terror into your everyday life?
