Summary:
"Over the course of a year after the Russian invasion, award-winning artist George Butler drew portraits of Ukrainians as he interviewed them about the extraordinary turmoil the war had caused in their lives. From civilians in occupied cities to soldiers on the front line, this is a unique collection that vividly captures personal testimonies of community, tragedy, and perseverance. This is an illuminating and powerful testament to the resilience and pride of the people of Ukraine, and a timely reminder of the universal need for peace" -- Dust jacket.
