A selection of fifteen of Ukraine's most important, dynamic and
entertaining contemporary writers Under USSR rule, the subject
matter and style of literary expression in Ukraine was strictly
controlled and censored. But once Ukraine gained independence in
1991 its literary scene flourished, as the moving and delightful
poems, essays and extracts collected here show. There are fifteen
authors included in this book, both established and emerging, and
in this anthology we see them grappling with history and the
future, with big questions and small moments. From essays about
Chernobyl to poetry about Robbie Williams, from fiction discussing
Jimmy Hendrix live in Lviv to underground Ukrainian poetry of the
Soviet era, WRITING FROM UKRAINE offers a unique window into a rich
culture, a chance to experience a particularly Ukrainian
sensibility and to celebrate Ukraine's nationhood, as told by its
writers.
