About the book: 2014 / Nowhere is human character more evident than in relation to animals - after all, they are like children: defenseless and at the same time sensitive to lies, not forgive betrayals. Isabel adored her charges, the bonobo apes. She studied their habits and spoke to them using a special linguistic program. She was interested in them, it was her world, which she would not exchange for anything in the world. Everything collapsed after a monstrous explosion in the laboratory, which was caused by people trying to profit from bonobos. For them, Isabel's pets are funny little animals that they can stare at shamelessly and sell them for money. But Isabel, who miraculously survived the explosion, does not intend to give up - the bonobos must be returned to the laboratory at any cost. She had to grit her teeth, forget that she had just recently been literally pieced together, that the person she trusted had betrayed her, and fight. Because we are responsible for those who believe us. Translation: Ilona Rusakova
