Zhyvi. Zrozumity ukrayinsʹku literaturu: Ukrainska 2024

Mykola Gogol, Vasyl Stefanyk, Olena Teliga, Ivan Bagryany, Mykhailo Kotsyubynskyi, Mykola Khvylovy are classics about whom it seems we know everything. However, what will happen if you read their works for the first time? Passing their lives through their own experiences and constantly asking: what was the relationship with the parents? Did they consciously choose the Ukrainian language? What kind of teenagers were they? Were they shaped by popular mass literature? What problems did they face when they were in their twenties? What difficult life choice faced them in their thirties, when another terror came to the Ukrainian land? Are there forgotten and little-known masterpieces outside the usual canon that are so relevant now? Oleksandr and Pavlo Mykhedy, son and father, writer and literary critic, invite you on a journey through two centuries of Ukrainian literature - from stories about the lives of the classics to a conversation about a generation of Ukrainians, whose fate each time falls on terrible trials.
