Structured non-chronologically, the images are not arranged to tell a story in sequence but to let different years speak to one another directly: a photograph from 2009 can sit beside one made only months ago, each altering how the other is read. In this movement across time, chronology dissolves into something closer to memory itself — associative, recursive, not entirely reliable. The book does not attempt to reconstruct a life in order, nor to explain the choices that shaped it. Instead, it gestures toward the slow accumulation of small decisions and quiet observations that only become visible as change, looking back. The Road Not Taken invites the viewer to sit inside that uncertainty — the space between what happened and what might have — and to recognise, in Leskova’s work, something of their own unresolved paths.
