      Lexicon of Intimate Cities

      by Yurii Andrukhovych

      "Lexicon of Intimate Cities" is the biggest novel of Yuriy Andruhovych so far. A tireless traveler across Ukraine, Europe, and America, the author tells us 111 stories about 111 cities with which he was lucky enough to experience happy and not so happy, but always intimate, in the broadest sense of the word, moments.Arranged in the alphabetical order according to the geographical names of the locations, these diverse texts – from essays and short stories to prose poems together form an autobiographical atlas of the writer's world. In addition, each "lexical" adventure is clearly inscribed in time space coordinates, which allows the reader to follow the author in 111 private-historical leaps from the mid-60s of the last century to the present day.It is hardly worth expecting objective characteristics of Kyiv and Lviv, Moscow and Warsaw, New York and Yenakiyiv from this atlas, this extremely subjective "manual of geopoetics and cosmopolitics". But you can definitely find more artistically important things in it: the atmosphere, mood, images, smells and tastes of favorite cities and places, as they were imprinted in the author's memory. As well as momentary observations and deeper reflections, lyricism and sadness, irony and sarcasm - that is, everything that makes our communication with the world to resemble true intimacy.

      The mace of Illya Muromets

      Without faith, life is devoid of a miracle, without a miracle you cannot accomplish a feat.

      by Yriy Ligun

      In the ancient caves near Kyiv Pechersk Lavra, the relics of the legendary hero of Kyiv, Ilya Muromets, lies. This is a shrine of the Ukrainian Church. The monks speak, the relics give strength to everyone who comes to them. We know about the greatness of the hero from ancient legends. The modern story reproduces the life of people in the period of the 11th century on the lands now occupied by modern Ukraine, and tells about the military exploits of Ilya Muromets. This great warrior had great power and never used it for aggressive campaigns and personal enrichment. When Ilya felt that he was getting old, he came to the Kyiv Pechersk Lavra, plunging into a lonely prayer not only for his homeland, but also for the souls of the enemies he has had to kill. Vivid, characteristic illustrations of Oleksandr Prodan for this novel help to feel the atmosphere of the past.

      Kyiv, Ukraine - Revised Edition

      The City of Domes and Demons from the Collapse of Socialism to the Mass Uprising of 2013-2014

      by Roman Adrian Cybriwsky

      The unrest and violence in Ukraine in recent years shocked the world, and the region's long-term future remains troublingly uncertain. Focusing on the difficulty of Kiev's transition from socialism to market democracy, this book demonstrates how Ukraine reached this turbulent point. Roman Adrian Cybriwsky delves deeply into the changing social geography of the city, recent urban development, and critical problems such as official corruption, inequality, sex tourism, and the heedless destruction of the city's historical architecture - all difficulties that have contributed incrementally to Ukrainian citizens' anger against their government. This thoroughly revised edition brings Cybriwsky's account of events and their ramifications fully up to date, offering the clearest picture we've had yet of what has happened - and what is likely still to come - in Ukraine.

      Knights of the Famished Renaissance

      by Dmytro Horbachov

      The phenomenon of the Ukrainian avant-garde was first revealed to the Western world in 1973 at the "Tatlin's dream" London exhibition where for the first time, world-class paintings by little known Ukrainian avant-garde artists Vasyl Yermylov and Oleksandr Bohomazov were exhibited. This famous show raised awareness also of other world-famous masters who, by origin, upbringing, self identification, and national traditions were associated with Kyiv, Kharkiv, Lviv, and Odesa. Apart from the above-mentioned artists, the book mentions “the most faithful son of Ukraine” Davyd Burliuk, as well as Kazymyr Malevych, a Pole who considered himself Ukrainian; Volodymyr Tatlin, a professor of Kyiv Art Institute and bandura player; Oleksandra Ekster, a founder of the Ukrainian school of constructivist scenography; artists of the "Culture League"; Oleksandr Arkhypenko, a phenomenal sculptor. Supplemented with extensive cultural studies and personal memories of the author, the book is designed to present the reader with a complete picture of the origins and formation of the Ukrainian artistic avant-garde. Compiled by Oleksiy Sinchenko.

      by Oleksii Nikitin

      Ilya Goldinov, Ukrainian Jew boxing champion, had won the second place in the Soviet All-Union championship when World War II started. After Germany invaded Ukraine, he joins the guerrillas in the forests behind the front line. Only by a lucky coincidence does he survive and he joins the regular army as a soldier before being sent by the secret service on a life-threatening mission to occupied Kyiv. This family saga, full of inconceivable twists and turns, is told in such a thrilling, detailed and touching way that it captivates its readers after only a few pages. Bat-Ami is not a documentary novel, but its story is inspired in part by the author‘s family recollections and is based on the documentary files relating to 1941-42 secret service operations from the archives of the Ukrainian Secret Service released only in 2011, as well as from other Ukrainian archives, in particular the Museum of the Dynamo Kyiv Sports Club and Yad Vashem organisation. The fight of Ukrainian patriots for independence of Ukraine from Russia, the USSR, and liberation from German occupiers captures your attention and can become the vital lesson for present-day Ukraine.

      The Last Case of Journalist Cronina

      by Anastasiia Pika

      Aliona Cronina is a young Ukrainian journalist who started working in a highly censored publication, fully controlled by its Russian sponsor. During Euromaidan, she realized that she can no longer be a detached witness to the events and wants to fight Kremlin propaganda and reveal the truth to people. Aliona will build a brilliant career: IT journalist, Ukrainian parliament employee, MI6 intelligence agent — and she will try to thwart the Russian invasion of Ukraine that started on February 24, 2022. The novel consists of four parts, each chapter corresponding to a case file the heroine takes on. The novel is not just about modern Ukrainian history in 2012–2022; it is primarily about the development of Ukrainian journalism and democratic society. The author seeks to answer the question of why neither censorship, nor Putin’s propaganda in the Ukrainian media, nor the attempts to suppress Ukrainian revolutions by force, nor even forced emigration and war can make a dent in Ukrainians’ inner strength and perseverance.
