About the Book

Questions Without Answers consists of novellas making up an entity, so it's a novel in novellas. The book is about the basic issues of human life: love, hope, repentance, faith, art... well, life itself. It has more questions than ready answers. The novel is highly metaphoric. Here is what Michael Blekhman says, 'I call my style Subjective Realism. It was me who ‘invented’ it, and I dare to say it is quite unique. My literary 'teachers' are Jorge Luis Borges and Julio Cortazar, although I do hope that I have managed to make a step or two forward... It's not up to me to judge though. Hopefully, my dear reader, you will like this book.' The book has beautiful illustrations by Alexey Kuznetsov. Prof. Olga Bezhanova is the editor and the author of the Foreword.
