The site of the worst nuclear catastrophe in history, the primary target of the Kremlin's disinformation campaigns as well as the country to spark the collapse of the Soviet Union and to stand up to its neo-imperialist successor: Ukraine has been the first to face and, at times, to set in motion processes with worldwide consequences. After Russia's full-scale invasion compromised the global system of security, the value of Ukrainian knowledge and experience can no longer be dismissed. The urgency to learn with and from Ukraine is now existential for the rest of the world. This unique collection presents essays, in English and Ukrainian translations, by emerging authors from Ukraine and the UK who employ cross-cultural dialog and the art of storytelling to open up Ukrainian perspectives on the challenges facing humanity worldwide. The volume's contributors are Olesya Khromeychuk, Sofia Cheliak, Kateryna Iakovlenko, Olena Kozar, Kris Michalowicz, Phoebe Page, Jonathon Turnbull, and Mstyslav Chernov. \"If you want to understand the impact of Russiaʼs invasion of Ukraine from the inside, read this vivid, moving, urgent collection of essays.\" --Charlotte Higgins, The Guardian \"Moving, heartfelt and often deeply personal, these essays off er a compelling portrait of life in Ukraine under the shadow of war.

Crossing Ukraine in trains and volunteer cars, I have collected testimonies of everyday defiance that has surprised the world and, at times, Ukrainians themselves. A suitable language for relaying the atrocities we endure does not exist. I accept it, alongside the need to reach for a universal dimension in the singular horror of each act of Russian aggression. When reaching for the universal, one often taps into folklore. And once in the realm of folklore, one can read the old stories in a new way and make the reading emancipatory. In the sixteen tales that comprise this book, we meet characters from myth and legend next to my contemporaries and fellow citizens, united in a fight for justice.’        Sasha Dovzhyk","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":53432986566929,"sku":"NGR9781917569316","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9781917569316.jpg?v=1776464559"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/collections\/author-books-by-sasha-dovzhyk.oembed","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
