The first beauty of the village, Marusia, known as the Romanian, is paired with Lioshka, clever, handsome and successful, and the two could live like royalty. What does she care for her neighbour, frail red-haired Stiopka the German, in his broken glasses? Yet every night he comes to the lilac bush by her house, and every night she opens the window. In another story line Ruslana, the seventeen-year-old daughter of the oligarch Oleksii Ordynskyi, who has spent ten years in England with her parents, is seized by patriotism. She returns to Kyiv with four bodyguards and money to buy a piece of her native land, and turns down a cottage settlement of the new rich: she wants land celebrated in legends.
