Iryna Piatnickoy is a contemporary Russian writer whose writings are mainly focused on spiritual realia as well as on creating spiritual values. In her story, the writer presents the fate of two children from an orphanage; she shows their unshaped interior, which, without any resistance, is open to the contact with the sacrum.
