About Eugenia Sokolskaya
The books shown here are a reflection of a thirteen-year-old mind and soul, a glimpse into the unformed worldview of a growing child, before that child knew or explored what could possibly lay ahead. These are fantastical stories from the imagination of one still unfamiliar with the world - but perhaps no less insightful for that.
The author has given up writing for publication; as of this writing, she is in college and intedning to pursue a career in translation.
