"коли мені трапилися обкладинки джорджа щербаненка від фоліо, я подумала, що це якийсь такий прикол. а виявилося, що ні: щербаненко — народжений 1911 року син українця й італійки, у хрещенні володимир; 1920-го його батька розстріляли більшовики. страшенно плідний письменник, якими могли б бути ще багато українців його покоління, якби не кацапи. і ще й переклад анатоля перепаді. треба читати, хоч жанр і не мій." — Aug 29, 2025 05:34AM

verbava’s Quotes

“Whenever someone casually refers to “the history of civilization” in a way that does not jibe with the history of civilization as I extensively, constantly, read about it, I like to research their favorite books to see where they are getting their information. In most of these cases all their favorite books have titles like Christmas, Guns, and Integrity.”
― Jennifer Wright, Get Well Soon: History's Worst Plagues and the Heroes Who Fought Them
