Oksana Zabuzhko, author of “the most influential Ukrainian book
in the fifteen years since independence,” Fieldwork in Ukrainian
Sex, returns with a gripping short story collection. Oksana
Zabuzhko, Ukraine’s leading public intellectual, is called upon
to make sense of the unthinkable reality of our times. In this
breathtaking short story collection, she turns the concept of truth
over in her hands like a beautifully crafted pair of gloves. From
the triumph of the Orange Revolution, which marked the start of the
twenty-first century, to domestic victories in matchmaking, sibling
rivalry, and even tennis, Zabuzhko manages to shock the reader by
juxtaposing things as they are—inarguable, visible to the naked
eye—with how things could be, weaving myth and fairy tale into
pivotal moments just as we weave a satisfying narrative arc into
our own personal mythologies. At once intimate and worldly, these
stories resonate with Zabuzhko’s irreverent and prescient voice,
echoing long after reading.
