In 2010 Guram Megrelishvili authored the novel Iratta.ru  about the 2008 Russian-Georgian conflict, which due to its tense plot and somewhat subjective naturalism has no alternative among other books about the recent war.

His play How to Make a Boy  devoted to the problem of violence was awarded the UN special prize.
