"[A]n extraordinary work within the literary canon of the Holocaust." --Aldo and Jeanne Scaglione Prize for a Translation of a Literary Work
With The Voices of Babyn Yar--a collection of stirring poems by Marianna Kiyanovska--the award-winning Ukrainian poet honors the victims of the Holocaust by writing their stories of horror, death, and survival by projecting their own imagined voices. Artful and carefully intoned, the poems convey the experiences of ordinary civilians going through unbearable events leading to the massacre at Kyiv's Babyn Yar from a first-person perspective to an effect that is simultaneously immersive and estranging. While conceived as a tribute to the fallen, the book raises difficult questions about memory, responsibility, and commemoration of those who had witnessed an evil that verges on the unspeakable.
