New unique book by Vyacheslav Prah! A harsh male novel and a philosophical parable under one cover. 2051. This world is called the Box, its inhabitants are outcasts. And one day the outcasts find a way out into a completely different world - Catharsis. There are no robots identical to the inhabitants of the Box, there are no “boxes” and computers wired into the human brain. There, death becomes the shadow of the outcast and haunts him day after day. There is no usual night there - after all, in Catharsis the Night lasts six days, just like the day. It is at night that the creatures of Catharsis, non-humans, crawl out and cleanse the lands of outcasts. But Catharsis stores too valuable gifts for the outcasts to give up on it so easily: water from the Samson River subjugates the will of a person, and the fruit of eternity is capable of reviving the dead. The Evil Outcast returns to Catharsis. His goal is to find the fruit of eternity and bring his dead friend back to life. By chance, he becomes drawn into a series of brutal murders of those who do not remember in the City of Peace. No one expected his return to the lands of gifts and outcasts...
