Rose. Oksana Vasyakina concludes her autofictional trilogy, which also includes Rána and Step, with a novel in which she attempts to uncover the secrets of her aunt Svetlana’s short, almost insignificant life. From small fragments of memories, a complex picture emerges in which difficult relationships with her mother, domestic instability, and indifference to her own fate coexist with an almost childlike vulnerability and purity.
However, the deeper the protagonist delves into Svetlana’s story, the more she realizes their inseparable connection and learns more about herself and the nature of her writing.
