The poetess is concerned about various sides of life. In her lyrics, she expresses the hope of all good, honest and truthful. Warm and heartfelt lines by Sofia Shah are devoted to most expensive human feelings, and love above all. In her works, she touches the themes of life and its meaning, talking about the Motherland and the common trouble, Chernobyl.

Vladimir Gnilomyodov, a well-known critic, in the review of contemporary poetry wrote: "Not long ago, I’ve discovered a new name – Sofia Shah. A voice that is not loud, but very true. In my opinion, this is a real poetry, so truthful, civil, moral and meaningful... It has a living human character, a hero, a person to whom the poetess doesn’t hesitate to identify herself. Imagery that follows from the poetess’ outlook, with her perception of the world, is built on the people’s basis. "

The exhibition also includes manuals authored by Sofia Shah, a speech therapist by profession. Her books on entertaining grammar for primary school and middle classes will be useful for teachers.

The exhibition is designed for a wide audience.
