Thanks to Bookouture and Netgalley for this ARC.
This book was originally published in 2005, but is being relaunched in April 2022 as Ukraine is yet again under attack.
This is a short story collection based on the author's Ukrainian's family member's real life experience before, during and after WWII. As much as there's a large abundance of WWII fiction books out there, the Ukrainian perspective is rarely seen. The stories are loosely connected to each other and gives us a glimpse of the struggles of these people during that time.
These stories have a message of hope in the darkest times.
