"Zekameron" was written in a pre-trial detention cell. Lawyer Maksim Znak represented the interests of presidential candidates Viktar Babarika and Sviatlana Tikhanouskaya during the 2020 election campaign in Belarus. He was sentenced to 10 years in prison on charges of "conspiracy to seize power by unconstitutional means," among others. Dostoevsky wrote: "There is one torment in hard labor life that is almost stronger than all others. It is: forced common cohabitation..... Such people come to the penal colony that not everyone would like to get along with them". Maxim Znak told about his "common cohabitation" with his captive neighbors. All of them are interesting to him, he listens to all of them, helps them as much as he can. He has a happy character and a sharp eye: even in the most dramatic situations, he notices glimmers of humor, hope and optimism. "Zekameron" - the first experience of prose for Maxim. Will there be a continuation? Mayakovsky after a year in Butyrka writes: "The most important time for me ... I threw myself into fiction." But this he writes already at liberty - let us wish the same to Maxim Znak.
