Dear friends,
Just now, a peculiar debut – a book review “Muse-Book” - has taken place on the Museum “Jewish Memory and Holocaust in Ukraine” Facebook page. It is an unprincipled and subjective look at book novelties and classics from the Museum library curator, the goddess of Ukrainian orthography and intolerance towards stylistic ignoramuses, Zoriana Bondar, and from the ironic connoisseur of good paper and the printing ink smell, a man who is under constant threat of being expelled from home because of lack of space for new books, Yehor Vradii.
In the first issue of “Muse-Book”, against the background of disputes and the distance struggle for the microphone, serious things were also discussed:
- How do scientific books allow researchers to pronounce and overcome traumas?
- Is “truth” possible in a dialogue about a common past?
- Why are unusual stories of ordinary people the best recipe for creating a bestseller so far?
Watch, listen and read on the Museum “Jewish Memory and Holocaust in Ukraine” Facebook page,
