During the opening of the last monument. The Principal of BelSU Oleg Polukhin said that this project has no peers in Russia and the world.

All monumets are made by the same author, – the honored artist of Russia Anatoliy Shishkov, – and in the same manner: writers sit in chairs, looking thoughtfully at the passerbys. Every base has an engraved quote from the author’s book.
