About this product

Product Information

"A beautifully written evocation of Ukraine's brutal past and its shaky efforts to construct a better future."-- Financial Times Ukraine is gripped in a bloody crisis that has killed tens of thousands, displaced millions, and is transforming the world's energy policies and security architecture. As celebrated journalist Anna Reid shows in Borderland, this conflict is the latest of many. Ukraine has been a borderland, and a battlefield, for more than seven centuries, from the Mongol invasion of 1240 to the Maidan protests of 2014--and, of course, the devastating Russian invasion of 2022. In this penetrating book, Reid combines research and her own experiences to chart Ukraine's tragic past and uncertain future. Talking to peasants and politicians, rabbis and racketeers, dissidents and paramilitaries, survivors of Stalin's famine and of Nazi labor camps, she reveals the layers of myth and propaganda that wrap this divided land. From the Polish churches of Lviv to the coal mines of the Donbass to the Tatar shantytowns of Crimea, the book explores Ukraine's struggle to build itself a national identity. Updated to include firsthand material from the 2022 Russia-Ukraine war, Borderland is essential reading for anyone looking to understand Ukraine and how its history is shaping its destiny.

Reviews
"A beautifully written evocation of Ukraine's brutal past and its shaky efforts to construct a better future . . . Reid succeeds in vividly conjuring up dozens of little ­known heroes and villains of Ukrainian history . . . Reid sum­mons up the rogues and poets of Ukraine's past with a deft touch, but her real theme is the tragedy which has been Ukraine's lot for much of its history . . . Borderland is a tapestry woven of the stories of all its inhabitants, recording their triumphs and their con?icts with the fairness of a compassionate outsider."-- Financial Times
