Yeva is crossing Ukraine in search of endangered snails. Her passion is hard to fund, but she has a plan: posing as a mail-order bride, she lures thirteen willing bachelors into the forest. Then Russia invades Ukraine. «That the characters are fictional makes the horrors of the war even more effective» (The Sunday Times).
