Product description from producer
This book by Tamara Gundorova is an attempt to rethink Lesya Ukrainka's biography, which intertwines illness and creativity, Ukraine and foreign lands, politics and literature, classics and modernity, love and death.Relationship with Kobylyanska as an embodiment of love, creative growth and understanding. The trauma experienced at the bedside of the terminally ill Merzhinsky. Spiritual and intellectual closeness to Dragomanov. Marriage with Kliment Kvitka. Finally, resistance to the established rules and laws of the patriarchal system, the "abnormality" of love, the fatum of artistic madness, which she learned in moments of creativity, sanatorium tourism, to which her illness doomed her. All this was rooted in the special state of "otherness" of the writer, a woman and a "stranger" at home, and at the same time it gave Larisa Kosach-Kvitka the opportunity to obtain true freedom and comprehend the universal, transcultural perspective of the world view. A year before her death, she confessed to her mother: "...only a woman can write the story of Mavka". But the truth was that only a woman could write all her works.
Number of pages: 304.
