Picked up my copies today of Flood, by writer and serviceman Yevhen Lir. This book is based on testimonies of people who survived the Russian occupation and the aftermath of the Kakhovka HPP sabotage.
It’s a documentary-artistic journey to the Kherson steppes. Among the witnesses are older residents who were forced to leave their homes and now must evacuate again. Despite the tragic background, the book depicts the beauty of Ukraine’s south and emphasizes the importance of preserving its culture, as well as the memory of what the Russians destroyed, such as the unique murals by local artist Polina Rayko.
