About

The Guardian Chief Culture Writer Charlotte Higginsnever expected to report from a war zone.But in 2022 she travelled to Ukraine and found a country where culture itself is under attack but also fiercely alive.

In Ukrainian Lessons , she explores how artists and writers respond to invasion, and how art becomes a means of survival, resistance and testimony.

Part reportage, part personal reckoning, this is a powerful, moving account; an unforgettable reflection on war, memory and the vital role of culture when everything else is at stake.

This is the most beautifully written, moving book I can ever remember reading. PHILIPPA PERRY
