About the book: 1996 / The famous writer-historian Sergei Pavlovich Mosiyash in his historical novel "Svyatopolk the Accursed" interprets in his own way the image of the main character, who received the nickname "The Accursed" for his many crimes. Fascinatingly and quite convincingly, the writer creates the image of an honest prince, but slandered by envious people and chroniclers. This is no longer a cruel criminal, but a firm ruler defending the Kiev throne from the encroachments of power-hungry rivals.
