A reading circle exploring Ukraine through stories written by Ukrainian authors. Over the autumn, the group discusses three books, each one offering a different view of the country and its people.
- Sergiy Zhadan's Mesopotamia, a collection of twelve short stories linked by shared acquaintances.
- Sofiya Andrukhovych's Romana's Story, which follows one family through the twentieth century and up to the present day.
- Andrei Kurkov's Grey Bees, about two neighbours who cannot stand each other yet cannot do without one another.
The first book can be picked up at the library from 24 August.
