Since February 24, thousands of women like Justyna have crossed the border every day. With children, pets, and sick parents, they ran away from the horrors brought by the Russian army into Ukraine. Justyna recently retired but hasn’t lost a taste for life. But the war changed everything. An intelligent and smart teacher, she becomes a refugee in Europe, along with thousands of other Ukrainian women. “Who are you?” “I am Justyna,” she would always answer the question that seemed to come from everywhere. Together with Justyna, readers travel through a long road toward the search for the self in the world that dramatically expanded and yet existed only at home, in Ukraine. Foregrounding the traumatic experience of becoming a refugee, the loss of home, and a reconsideration of a new life, the novel answers the question of who really is Justyna as well as every Ukrainian woman who lived through the experience of forced displacement.
Could anyone imagine that in the twenty-first century, a city of an independent European country could be erased from the face of the earth, while its people were put on the brink of humanitarian catastrophe? For almost three months, in real-time, the whole world had been watching the Russian army slowly destroy Mariupol—one of the key cities of eastern Ukraine. “I was born in Mariupol and lived there all my life. It’s the city of my childhood, of my love and my happiness. I’ve seen it in different shapes and forms, but I’ve never thought that I would see it dead. I couldn’t even imagine that I would be describing its agony. The characters of this book are real people. They are my friends, relatives, and neighbors. During the blockade, bombardments, constant shelling, and hunger, we, the residents of Mariupol, tried to survive. I was writing down everything that was happening to us to keep my sanity. I didn’t think I had a chance to escape this hell and that’s why I described all events as they really happened”, writes Nadia Sukhorukova about her book.
— True crime stories from the morgue — Famous deaths and autopsy stories resolved, such as Antarctic explorer Sir Ernest Shackleton and the case of Anne Greene, who survived her execution by hanging The post-mortem examination. A glimpse inside the interior of the human being. Many find the idea fascinating; for others it is creepy or even repugnant. There are still numerous myths and horror stories surrounding the autopsy, many of them associated with primal human fears such as that of being buried alive, which have existed since Antiquity. It is precisely for this reason that it is important to carry out the post-mortem examination with the utmost conscientiousness. Pathologist Roland Sedivy provides an exciting insight into his profession. Profound and with tremendous humour, he tells us about the early days of the autopsy, and shares with us some macabre and some mysterious cases.
As a child, she could not understand why people in films about the blockade of Leningrad were always lying down. And when Mariupol was besieged by the Russians, and she and her husband lived for many days without water, food and heat under constant shelling, she realized that when you lie down, you save strength and energy. "77 Days of February" included reports written by journalists of the Reporters media in the period between February 23 and May 9 — two symbolic dates for Russian military ideology. The invasion of Russian troops into Ukraine stopped the number of days and pushed Ukrainians back to the intervening time, where February — the month of the beginning of the great war — still lasts. In the meantime and in these candid stories, there is pain, fear, hatred, and sometimes despair. But the main thing is hope. This is a bare nerve and an honest voice of the new Ukrainian reality.
Crimea. It was here that the main character of the novel spent her childhood, youth and met first love. It was here that she realized that she is Ukrainian. Neither grandfather, lieutenant colonel of the KGB, nor Russian blood in his veins stood in the way of her self-identification. The novel intertwines Crimean Tatar culture, Ukrainian history and family skeletons in closets like an ornament. Together with the main character and her friends, Aliye who is a Crimean Tatar, and Alyona who is a Ukrainian, the reader travels a long way from their childhood to the present — the occupation of the peninsula by Russia. «There is a land beyond Perekop» is an ode to Crimea. Not to its natural beauty and uniqueness, but to people. This is an attempt to open the mainland for Crimea, and Crimea for the mainland. After all, there is land both there and there. It should be known and stitched.
He could have been showing his son the world, and just stayed by his side. Instead, he joined the army to protect his country in the Russo-Ukrainian war. Despite the exhausting days of combat, the main character doesn’t forget that he is a father, too. This book came to be as a conversation with the son who remains far away, yet always close — in his father’s heart. The book doesn’t include battle scenes or combat descriptions. Valeriy Puzik tries to demonstrate that even at the time of the most ruthless wars, a human remains at the center of everything. He leads readers through fragments of memories, reflections about today, and dreams about the future, creating his own battlefield reality. This book is about the here and now that thousands of soldiers experience during the war. It’s a raw nerve that leaves no space for feelings of indifference towards the world around. It’s a narrow path over the precipice that must be crossed to finally see the light — children, loved ones, and a peaceful homeland.

»Es ist vergeblich, für sie zu leben und für sie zu sterben. Sie sagen: er ist ein Jude.« Dies schrieb einer der erfolgreichsten Schriftsteller deutscher Sprache in der ersten Hälfte des 20. Jahrhunderts, Jakob Wassermann, in seinem autobiographischen Essay Mein Weg als Deutscher und Jude. Er war Deutscher, er war Jude – »eines so sehr und so völlig wie das andere, keines ist vom anderen zu lösen«. Beides zugleich zu sein aber war ihm in der Welt, in der er lebte, verwehrt: »Es ist mir, als wäre nur bei den Toten Gerechtigkeit zu finden gegen die Lebenden. Denn was diese tun, ist ganz und gar unerträglich.« Dieses radikal anklagende Buch wurde 1921 erstmals veröffentlicht, zwölf Jahre, bevor die Nazis in Deutschland an die Macht kamen und damit begonnen wurde, den Juden Europas das Leben zu nehmen.Jakob Wassermann führt die persönlich erfahrene Bodenlosigkeit einer deutsch-jüdischen Doppelexistenz vor Augen, die Abgründe des Antisemitismus, mit denen sich ein Jude in Deutschland schon in den frühen zwanziger Jahren konfrontiert sah.
