All Of It - A podcast by WNYC
Over the past few months, we've seen many organizations stepping up to fundraise for humanitarian efforts working to help Ukrainians suffering from the Russian invasion of their country. A new book aims to use Ukrainian literature to raise money for relief efforts, as well as promote Ukrainian authors and stories. Love in Defiance of Pain: Ukrainian Stories, which is available for pre-order now, includes a variety of different contemporary Ukrainian authors with stories of war, love, and fantasy. Ali Kinsella and Zenia Tompkins, co-editors of the book, join to preview the project, highlight some authors check out, and speak to the importance of reading Ukrainian literature right now. Proceeds from the sales of this collection will be donated to humanitarian efforts in Ukraine.
