Description:
“Her name is Leticia Kuriata. She has the skill to invent stories so expertly that it’s impossible not to believe them. She tells seven nearly true tales about her father: a 17th‑century polkovnyk, a ghost of the past, a stove‑maker, a forester, a duck on the village pond, and a modern war hero… But who is he really? And does he truly exist?
In a world where war has become everyday life, Leticia fights her own battle against the worst demon — loneliness. By weaving reality and fiction together, she comes closer to the truth. Perhaps she is the only weapon against what destroys us.
Leticia Kuriata and All Her Imaginary Lovers She Lied to About Her Father blends humor, sarcasm, poetic allusions, magical realism, and autobiographical storytelling with reportage elements. It portrays vulnerability in a world where war is ordinary and love a saving illusion.” Laboratoriya
