My Cut-Open Palm: Ukrainian Poetry In Translation - Paperback

by Hryhorii Skovoroda (Author), Ivan Franko (Author), Bohdan Ihor Antonych (Author)

MY CUT-OPEN PALM: Ukrainian Poetry in Translation brings together six centuries of Ukrainian verse - from Renaissance humanists to contemporary voices shaped by war, exile, and cultural survival.

Translated by poet and filmmaker Oleksandr Frazé-Frazénko, this anthology presents major figures of Ukrainian literature alongside modern and living poets, revealing a tradition where poetry is not merely art, but an existential act - a way of preserving identity, memory, and moral freedom.
