In his works, the writer seeks to address the most pressing issues of the day; he attracts the reader’s attention to the ancestral human values: love, kindness, generosity. He writes about his native land and relations between man and nature, love and woman’s fate, and raises the issue of the native language. Kameysha returns to the theme of war and the Chernobyl disaster.
