Here is a diary chronicle of the approach, beginning, and unfolding of the Great War. The battle for life and freedom continues, and Ukraine is fighting back against the russian world.
The author is an observer and participant in a number of the events described, including as an artist, analyst, and soldier. The book captures the voices of the military, writers, journalists, politicians, scholars, and war victims. A decisive battle is being waged both at the front and in the information field against the enemy stereotypes that have taken root in many countries under the influence of russian propaganda.
There are still many days of struggle, trials, and pain ahead. And all for the sake of victory - the right of Ukrainians to be and confidently move towards their own future.
The diary is framed by graphic paintings by Anatolii Dnistrovyi, some of which he created during a candlelit blackout in the winter of 2022-2023.
