Prominent Ukrainian women of the 20th century often remain unnoticed. Someone may be hearing about the fate of some of the heroines of this book for the first time, but their role in Ukrainian history should not be underestimated. These are doctors, teachers, participants of the national liberation movement, political prisoners, journalists, soldiers, and cultural figures... Without them - strong, active, devoted - the pages of our family would be completely different.
