        by Myroslav Marynovych

        The author of the book served 10 years in prison in a concentration camp and was in exile in Brezhnev times for participating in the Ukrainian Helsinki Human Rights Group (UHG). It was the first legal, not underground, group of the Resistance Movement, which, acting for a long time, revealed to the whole world the situation with the human rights in Ukraine under the Soviet rule. Born in Galicia after the World War 2 and brought up in a Soviet school, the author shows in his memoirs the role of the Galician family in shaping the position of resistance to the totalitarian regime. He tells vigorously, interestingly and frankly about life in Kiev under the Soviets in the era of the Helsinki movement, about the activities of the UHG and its members, about unjust arrests, and Soviet crooked justice. He recounts in detail the life of political prisoners in a concentration camp, describes the circumstances of his exile in Kazakhstan. He pays great attention to the spiritual growth of a person, shares his reflections on dissidence and the nature of totalitarianism. And conclusively, he condemns the communist system.

        Witnessing: Anatomy of Russia's Annexation of the Crimea

        by Anna Andrievska, Olena Halimon

        The creation of this book was spearheaded by two journalists who used to work in Ukraine’s Crimea. The book’s genre is a mix of reportage, activism, and oral history and presents a narrative about Russia’s invasion of Crimea and its annexation in the spring of 2014. The volume captures the everyday life and resistance of the Crimean people under the occupation as well as the work of human rights and pro-Ukrainian activists who had remained in Crimea despite the crackdown of the collaborating local authorities and Russian security forces. The editors have amassed a sizable amount of recollections and testimonies. They interviewed forced migrants who moved to Ukraine-controlled territory immediately or soon after the annexation, people who were persecuted, held captive, or incarcerated by the FSB (the Russian Security Service) as well as residents who stayed in Crimea. These testimonies have undergone a media fact-check and an assessment by human rights institutions, such as the Crimean Human Rights Group and the Ukrainian Helsinki Human Rights Union, and were reworked in accordance with the standards of democratic journalism, translated into Ukrainian, and equipped with authentic illustrations. Some stories and documents were taken from the public domain and are included with the authors’ permission, while other stories were recorded specifically for this book.

Not only did the author write about the hero representatives of various important periods, such as Zhao Yiman, Zhao Dengyu, and Xia Minghan, but also wrote about some hero groups, such as the five heroes of the Langya Mountain, the two bombs and one star hero group, and the space hero group. This majestic ode to heroes is tenacious and tragic. It expresses the immortal historical feats made by the heroes for the Chinese revolution, China's construction and the Chinese people.

        Pleasure of Learning

        by Zhou Xue

        Like a bundle of secret documents, a soft piece of felt is wrapped around the body of this book and tied with a thread of raffia. Then calligraphic daubs of ink darken the creamy natural white of the paper, page by page until you become immersed in a new world. The strong, tough paper contains texts in filigree Chinese type, with some smears of watery ink here and there.The reader works through the book very carefully because it appears so vulnerable with its assortment of papers, the stitch binding with open spine, and the secretive beginning. You therefore handle the artistic pages with extra caution – the book, illustrations and observations blend to form a contemplative whole. This corresponds perfectly to the pedagogical motive of the whole project – in the words of Confucius: the Pleasure of Learning.

        250 years of lies: Russian myths about the history of Crimea

        by Serhii Hromenko

        The book analyses more than 20 Russian myths fabricated to legitimise the annexation of Crimea. The annexation of the Ukrainian peninsular of Crimea by Russia in 2014 caused the largest political crisis in Europe since the Second World War. It also gave rise to the unprecedented growth of propaganda to justify the aggressive policy of the Russian Federation in the eyes of the world. Is Crimea really an original Russian land? Is it true that the Crimean Tatars are all traitors? Was the peninsula really integrated into Ukraine illegally? And what, after all, were the events of February–March 2014–the illegal occupation of the foreign territory or the “restoration of historical justice”?
