The historical novel “Wanderers” is dedicated to the Russian religious schism, which divided the entire society into two irreconcilable sides. Vladimir Lichutin, for the first time in today's literature, deeply and comprehensively explores this strange otherworldly and real world, this national drama that befell Rus' in the 17th century and accompanies the Russian people to this day, confirming the gospel commandment: “Every kingdom divided against itself will not stand.”

The novel is full of picturesque pictures of Russian life, rituals, national customs, already half-forgotten now - that true poetry that adorns our lives.
