We will be back.

A collection of twenty documentary poems written based on the stories of Belarusians who left the country during the year after the start of the 2020 protests. The Belarus I carry with me is the Belarus of decent people (Taubin poetry magazine) "You seem to continue living in Belarus remotely" (Radio Liberty)

Reviews
The poems are just wow! I really liked all the stories and the format, I've never read anything like this and was very pleasantly surprised that you can play with everything so interestingly.

“We Will Return” is a book of documentary poetry, a book of voices of those who left Belarus after the events of 2020, a book that is a strained nerve, a book of screams. I started reading it in June, and then it was painful and scary for me. Now, almost two months later (I started reading it again from the beginning), this book is hope and faith, and even love. Anna made poetry out of the cries of despair of those who screamed or could no longer scream. And now for me, “We Will Return” is an example of how you can make literature out of what is bloody, out of what is still alive beating in your palms. Such literature will fight for a long time!

I know that these are stories of those who had to leave, and I was not in that situation at all, but there is so much familiar pain that, as I sometimes think, no one else will understand. It was like a dialogue, I was reading them, and they were reading me, and it seems to me that they understood me.

She finally cried out everything she couldn't cry.

I was very impressed. From the emotions inside, from the universal scale of injustice. And so it reacted painfully inside, that she could not find words, and even now she can't.

I read one and tears came, thank you.

I read the whole thing in one go, a couple of times. It felt like I was watching a documentary. In terms of depth and density. I can almost see them.
Anna
This book is about life stories, united by one common theme of struggle. It is about the fact that under no circumstances, no matter how difficult the circumstances, one should not fold one's hands. Suffering cannot be avoided, but each of us has the choice to consider ourselves a victim or victim, to regret and cry, or to grit our teeth and move on. Each hero of the book creates his own meaning, worthy of hope, but in all of them there is a common thread that runs through all the chapters - the recognition of oneself as strong and invincible, and the country - the one that is worth fighting for.
