Born and raised in a small coal-mining town in Ukraine's industrial east, Yakimchuk lost her family home in 2014 when the region was occupied by Russian-backed militants and her parents and sister were forced to flee as refugees. Reflecting her complex emotional experiences, Yakimchuk's poetry is versatile, ranging from sumptuous verses about the urgency of erotic desire in a war-torn city to imitations of childlike babbling about the tools and toys of military combat. Playfulness in the face of catastrophe is a distinctive feature of Yakimchuk's voice, evoking the legacy of the Ukrainian Futurists of the 1920s. The poems' artfulness go hand in hand with their authenticity, offering intimate glimpses into the story of a woman affected by a life-altering situation beyond her control.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: USGenre: Poetry & DramaAuthor: Lyuba YakimchukItem Height: 216mmItem Length: 140mmTranslator: Oksana MaksymchukContributor: Oksana Maksymchuk (Translated by)Book Series: Lost Horse Press Contemporary Ukrainian Poetry SeriesItem Weight: 318gItem Width: 12mmRelease Year: 2021 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
