The Fallout: Voices from Ukraine – Anna Badkhen et al.

One year has passed since Russia launched a full-scale invasion of
Ukraine. The conflict has unleashed unspeakable violence, killing
hundreds of thousands of people, displacing millions from their
homes, and inflicting untold suffering. And the war’s impact on
Ukraine’s more-than-human life is just as unfathomable and
long-lasting. In the face of such impossible reckoning, author Anna
Badkhen brings together a compilation of vignettes by journalists,
poets, and environmentalists in close proximity to the war. From
the radioactive Red Forest of Chernobyl's Nuclear Exclusion Zone,
to the liberated but heavily-mined Izium and the fragile ecosystems
of the Ukrainian steppes, “The Fallout”' coalesces into what Anna
calls “a schrapneled bearing in time” and makes visible a landscape
fractured, disoriented, and deeply harmed. Learn more about your ad
