Samenvatting:

During the 2020 Belarusian uprising, a young poet is imprisoned for peaceful protest along with thousands of other ordinary people. Inside the crowded cells, she encounters people from every walk of life - teachers, grandmothers, students - each with their own story of resistance. This book interweaves her story and theirs into a powerful portrait of courage under repression.At once a literary prison memoir, a chorus of women's voices, and a testimony to the role of art under dictatorship, the book speaks to readers interested in freedom, solidarity, and the power of language.What once seemed unthinkable is now reality: the erosion of civil liberties, the normalisation of detention, and the quiet expansion of state power. This book speaks to our time, finding hope behind bars and the human will to unite in the darkest moments.
