I can hear your voice in this, my friend, and it's beautiful and powerful, as ever. Mara van der Lugt's book Hopeful Pessimism may resonate with you. Thinking of you and hoping our paths can cross again somewhere soon!
Your message as always is powerful. You have a gift for pulling out all these amazing historical Ukrainian literary references from some kind of magic box (unlike Pandora’s containing only symbols of hope) bringing these to life and weaving them with your own experiences, to bring such clarity and strength.
Olesya, your piece is incredibly powerful and truly inspiring! I am amazed by your strength, which gives so much hope!
Thank you so much for reading it, Julia!
