Olesya Khromeychuk & Christopher Miller: Ukraine - The People’s View
Against the tragedy of war, there is power in bearing witness. Olesya Khromeychuk’s brother Volodymyr was killed in eastern Ukraine and The Death of a Soldier Told By His Sister is her vivid account of sibling love and the grief of loss. Meanwhile, Financial Times reporter Christopher Miller has been embedded inside Ukraine for 13 years. The War Came To Us is his unmissable eyewitness account of change in a defiant, devastated country. Miller and Khromeychuk discuss their experiences with Anna Bubnova.
