Do you want to visit Paris at the beginning of the 20th century? To look at the city through the eyes of a writer — a modernist and a provocateur? Do you like artistic reflections and at the same time light reading? The novel ‘Balance’ and the story ‘The Secret’ by Volodymyr Vynnychenko — about life and death, love and hate, art and morality. About risky experiments, difficult relationships and love triangles. About revolutionaries and emigrants who lived, loved and died under the sky of Paris and the roofs of Montmartre.
