So, the main book of my life - "The Torture Camp on Paradise Street" - is available for purchase at the link below. There is no fictional plot in it: it is a non-fiction book describing the events in the Russian concentration camp "Izolyatsia" in Donetsk.

Once a symbol of US power and freedom, Radio Liberty is now forced to reduce toilets on the floors of its head office in Prague to conserve water and electricity.
To be honest, even in captivity, where I found myself for writing articles for Radio Liberty, we didn't line up for the toilet.

This is what the house looks like now, where I once rented an apartment to rest after returning from combat.
The apartment was rented out at insane prices, and the owners didn't hide the fact that this was payment for the fact that it would one day no longer exist, as if AFU were to blame

A week before the invasion, my friend asked me:
- I don't believe there will be an invasion, but I have a question: maybe that's because I have my own house, car, and business, and I can't believe it could all end in one day? You don't have any of this - how do you assess the situation?".
