Entropia

Full of fantasy and bizarre, at times hallucinatory images, the story gets under the skin of history, of the present and of the reader. Ranging across space and time into the distinctive world of the Rusyns and Lemkos, it examines what the events of the twentieth century in Galicia, and elsewhere, left behind. Along the way it asks whether a single act of mercy and a lifetime of penance can wash the blood from a sinner's hands and save his soul, and whether physical death really frees a person from responsibility.
