Sofia Andrukhovych closes her Ukrainian epic with 'Amadoca. L'histoire de Sophia'
The Ukrainian novelist continues the family saga she began with 'L'histoire de Romana et d'Ouliana', tracing the twentieth-century history of Ukraine through one household's memory, according to Télérama.
Télérama has reviewed 'Amadoca. L'histoire de Sophia', the French edition of a novel by Ukrainian writer Sofia Andrukhovych that continues the work she began with 'L'histoire de Romana et d'Ouliana'. The outlet describes it as a dark and poetic saga that follows a single family across the twentieth century to reconstruct the history of Ukraine itself.
According to Télérama, the book closes out this cycle with what it calls a major act of memory, using the fate of the family to render the country's own experience of the century: its upheavals, its losses, its survival.
The source material available to us does not give a publisher, translator, release date or page count for the French edition, nor any plot detail beyond the family framework and the Romana-and-Ouliana connection. Readers who keep a home library and want those specifics will need to check with their bookseller or the publisher directly.
