‘Invincible Marinich’

5

Presentation of the book "Invincible Marinich. History in photos" takes place in Minsk today.

The presentation will take place in the Minsk business center "Imaguru" in Fabritsius street, 4, Radio Svaboda reports. It is the seventeenth book of Aliakrandr Tomkovich about political, cultural and civil figures in Belarus.

It was planned to be launched by 74-years of Mikhail Marinich. But he passed away. He was born on January 13. He was gone 3 months before his birthday - 17 October, 2014.

"I started my book less than a year ago. That time Mikhail was too sick after the second apoplectic attack, he could hardly speak, I wanted to make something good for him. All August I spent next to him in his summer house. Originally the book was intended as a conversation with Marinich. Of course, there were enough. But I have decided to create such a format: 5 conversations with Marinich. Everything was almost ready, I even tried to show my handwriting, but I was late. Why have I decided to write a book? First, many told me he was not an ordinary man, he was very honest, sincere, moral. Well, and second, his illness made me do it, he bravely fought it out to the last gasp. I had the same ordeal, therefore I understand his feelings. Unfortunately, life's short", Aliaksandr Tomkovich said.

There are more than 120 photographs in the book.
