Serhiy Zhadan's novel "Despatch Mode" is not for the nervous and not for the "right" readers. This is an uncomplicated and tough story of entering a serious life. The action of the work takes place in June 1993. Three friends must urgently find the fourth, who disappeared in an unknown direction, and inform him about the suicide of his stepfather. Vasya Carburetor must be in time for the funeral... What is this: piercing lyrical text? a practical guide for a nonconformist and a left-wing terrorist? a religious novel? bullying novel? "Despatch Mode" only at first glance looks like a hallucination of a half-starved student, in fact it is a colorful portrait of a transitional age and a generation that was stuck in the brutal interlude of the nineties.
