The book by priest Alexander Dyachenko “Meetings-Partings” is a collection of short stories, human stories, full of unpredictable twists of fate. Any experienced screenwriter would envy the book’s twisted plot, based on real stories.
Many stories are closely connected with sacraments and church rites — baptism, wedding, unction, funeral service, consecration of an apartment or prayer service. While performing the sacrament, the priest remembers when and how the heroes of the story appeared in the church, what they came to the church with — trouble or joy. These memories entail a magical connection of events, destinies, secrets of the human heart, the author’s thoughts and his observations. Everything in life turns out to be no coincidence, and any meeting, action or word once spoken entails consequences, in which there is always God’s Providence…
