Но один и тот же человек стал огромным событием в жизни каждой из них. Обе девушки прожили долгую жизнь, не сломавшись под натиском "века-волкодава": прошли две мировые войны, революцию, гражданскую войну, сталинские лагеря и гитлеровский фашизм.

Роза, роман Оксаны Васякиной в жанре автофикшн, продолжает ее исследование отношений с семьей, реальностью и самой собой. "Рана" — дебютная книга трилогии — стала прощанием с умершей матерью, "Степь" — монологом об отце и его тяжелой судьбе. В завершающем трилогию романе Роза писательница старается разгадать тайну такой короткой жизни своей тети Светланы. Из небольших фрагментов памяти словно паззл складывается сложный образ, в котором тяжелые отношения с матерью, бытовая неустроенность и равнодушие к собственной судьбе соседствуют с почти детской уязвимостью и чистотой.
