FROM FAMILY ROOTS - a self-portrait of Ivan Prosianyk, a person of incredible talent, written in a rich folk language. He starts his life history from his birth in September 1947, from that time the FAMily Eye has been watching him from the Heavens to make him remember about future, about his predicted way of an artist, writer, journalist and be devoted and honest. From the biography of one person, brought up on family traditions of his grand- and great grandmothers, his father and grandfather, we see the history of a Ukrainian, a person of a big talent and difficult life, a doctor of people's wounds, specialist in curing by herbs. He was brought up on the basis of old knowledge: "Love your Motherland with all your heart! Here are your roots. Here is your family!" A reader will also come across the author's unique artistic view of the world - the reflection of his mother's flowery song. The inclinations both to a brush and a pen coexist in Ivan Prosianyk, in one word - the love to the beautiful.
