A crash course in Molotov cocktails : poems
Halyna Kruk (Author), Amelia Glaser (Translator), Yuliya Ilchuk (Translator)
"'We act like children with our dead,' Halyna Kruk writes as she struggles to come to terms with the horror unfolding around her: "confused,/ as if none of us knew until now/ how easy it is to die." In poem after devastating poem, Kruk confronts what we would prefer not to see: "a person runs toward a bullet/ with a wooden shield and a warm heart..." Translated with the utmost of care by Amelia Glaser and Yulia Ilchuk, A Crash Course in Molotov Cocktails is a guidebook to the emotional combat in Ukraine"-- Publisher's description
