Since Russia invaded Ukraine in February 2022, Yaroslav Trofimov has
spent months on end at the heart of the conflict, very often on its
front lines. In this authoritative account, he traces the war’s
decisive moments―from the battle for Kyiv to more recently the
gruelling and bloody arm wrestle involving the Wagner group over
Bakhmut―to show how Ukraine and its allies have turned the tide against
Russia in a modern-day battle of David and Goliath.
Putin had intended to conquer Ukraine with a vicious blitzkrieg, in a
few short weeks. But in the face of this existential threat, the
Ukrainian people fought back, turning what looked like certain defeat
into a great moral victory, even as the territorial battle continues to
seesaw to this day. This is the story of their epic bravery in the face
of almost unthinkable aggression.
For Trofimov, this war is deeply personal. He grew up in Kyiv and his
family has lived there for generations. He tells the story of how
everyday Ukrainian citizens―doctors, computer programmers,
businesspeople, and schoolteachers―risked their lives and lost loved
ones.
At once heart-breaking and inspiring, and combining vivid reportage
with expert military analysis and rare insight into the thinking of
Ukrainian leadership, Our Enemies Will Vanish tells the riveting story
Ukraine’s fight for survival and refusal to surrender as it has never
been told before.
