In 2014, Sonya Bilocerkowycz is a tourist at a deadly revolution. At first she is enamored with the Ukrainians' idealism, which reminds her of her own patriotic family. But when the romantic revolution melts into a war with Russia, she becomes disillusioned, prompting a return home to the US and the diaspora community that raised her. As the daughter of a man who studies Ukrainian dissidents for a living, the granddaughter of war refugees, and the great-granddaughter of a gulag victim, Bilocerkowycz has inherited a legacy of political oppression.

This book hits home. Not because I’m from Ukraine or have family there. Not because it’s in the news today. But because the author opens themselves up to something so deep and vital to the human experience. In a vulnerable look at Ukraine, you can’t help but read this book and think about your own heritage. It asks us all to recall the triumphs, the truths and the heartbreak that makes us who we are.
