A New Orthography by Serhiy Zhadan is the fifth volume in Lost
Horse Press’s Contemporary Ukrainian Poetry Series. In these
poems, the poet focuses on daily life during the Russo-Ukrainian
war, rendering intimate portraits of the country’s residents as
they respond to crisis. Zhadan revives and revises the role of the
nineteenth-century Romantic bard, one who portrays his community
with clarity, preserving its most precious aspects and darkest
nuances. The poems investigate questions of home, exile, solitude,
love, and religious faith, making vivid the experiences of
noncombatants, refugees, soldiers, and veterans. This collection
will be of interest to those who study how poetry observes and
mirrors the shifts within a country during wartime, and it offers
solace as well.
