The novel is a complex in form, but fascinating in content, a multi-vocal story of the “Promised Land”, told by the people themselves. The novel impresses with its picturesque scope and unusual plot structure. Volkhitka is a sorceress who has turned into a she-wolf. The two main poles of the novel are the confrontation between the queen soul and the wolf soul. Here, a cheerful fairy tale from distant times, today’s harsh reality, and the fact that F.M. Dostoevsky called it fantastic realism. The novel makes you think about preserving the Earth, about the purity of the soul, about human responsibility for all living things. The language of the novel attracts attention - original, bright, rooted in Russian folklore.
