About this listen

A collection of Andrey Kurkov's writings and broadcasts from Kyiv - an unmatched record of a brilliant, distinguished writer reporting from throughout his war-ravaged country. Andrey Kurkov - "Ukraine's greatest novelist," in the words of Giles Harvey in the New York Times - "is fighting for his country."

He listens to his countrymen everywhere, and in Our Daily War, he tells the world about the barbaric practices of the Russian army, about the relentless courage of the Ukrainian military and people - in the face of terrible privations, throughout winters of the bitterest cold - and about the indomitable spirit of his countrymen.

The determination of the Ukrainian armed forces and entire population of the country have won the admiration of the civilised world. They are often forced to live without water, without electricity; schools and kindergartens are frequently held below ground, whole cities have been shattered by artillery fire, by drone assaults; fields and towns have been changed forever by an almost unthinkable quantity of mines.

But what is beyond question is that Ukraine will not be defeated by the Russian forces, will never give in, and will, in time, rebuild their peoples' shattered lives. Known first for his genius as a comic novelist, Kurkov's second diary of the Russian invasion, Our Daily War, is, unsurprisingly, riddled with piercing humour. It provides insight and inside understanding of the politics and the complexities of the Ukrainian culture and is a book that could only have been written by a scholar who has spent a lifetime in Ukraine. Weaving his own personal story with that of his countrymen, those fighting the war on land, sea and air, and other displaced Ukrainians, this is a deeply personal and profound account of the war in Ukraine, and a portrait of a defiant, irrepressible nation facing immeasurable crisis.
