About this ebook
In a gilded, watchful society, survival demands a different self. PRACTICAL is a haunting journey across a ten-year descent, told in the relentless space between English and German—between the clarity of instruction and the nightmare of its execution.
Witness the silent selections based on the color of a uniform: blue, green, pale yellow. Feel the weight of memory that clings like a ghost and the desperate courage required to forget. Move with the narrative through mirrored labyrinths of power, where cages are ornate and monsters are rarely the ones we are taught to fear.
Step into this unsettling arena of dual consciousness. Will you find your way back out?

About the author
Riabov Pavlo is a writer and artist who builds worlds in the spaces between languages and states of being. Their work often explores the architecture of power, the psychology of constraint, and the haunting resonance of folktale and bureaucratic ritual. PRACTICAL is their first published novel—a dual-keyed labyrinth born from a fascination with silence, selection, and the selves we become to survive.
