This book brings together memoirs and firsthand testimonies of Yevhen Sverstiuk’s contemporaries. Nearly one hundred contributors — both seasoned individuals with extensive life experience and titles, as well as younger voices — share their personal impressions of encounters with this outstanding figure of our time. Through these recollections, Sverstiuk emerges as a leading representative of the Sixtiers movement, a “prisoner of conscience,” a literary scholar and philosopher, the editor of the Christian newspaper Nasha Vira (“Our Faith”), a principled citizen, and a sincere Christian. The volume is enriched with numerous photographs portraying him with his characteristic warm smile.
