About the book: 2019 / The story “Not Just a Word” by Nick Kramov touches on a big problem in the modern world, hidden behind the concept of “honor killing,” which is incomprehensible to most people. 20 thousand human lives a year are sacrificed not only in the countries of Asia and Africa, but also in prosperous Europe. The story talks about the choices that a person can make in such a situation, and the lack of alternative for the victim of public opinion, regardless of whether he is guilty. Reading the story is unlikely to leave anyone indifferent to this topic, because “honor killings” are happening these days, maybe even right now.
