The Literate Man
An unprecedented piece of news spreads through the village: a comrades’ court is to be held between collective farm brigade leader Yakiv Brus and an old woman named Motria, whom he struck on the head. The village club fills with people eager to sort out what seems to be every pressing issue at once.
