After a lifetime of knowing little about her father’s heritage, Michelle Lawson set out from England in 2018 with a handful of old photographs and the name of a village that had once lain within eastern Poland. Eight trains later, she arrived in Western Ukraine. This book is an account of her travels, exploring Ukraine and reforging some of the family bonds that had been lost over the decades.
Travel tales from L’viv, the Carpathians, Bukovyna and Kyiv throw light on a young nation where past and present are intertwined. In Ukraine, a knowledge of the past is necessary to understand its present.
Travels in a Young Country was conceived during the #WritersForUkraine initiative by Activated Authors in March 2022.
