Ukraine Is Not Dead Yet

A Family Story of Exile and Return
When Megan Buskeys grandmother Anna dies in Cleveland in 2013, Megan is compelled in her grief to uncover and document her grandmothers life as a native of Ukraine. A Ukrainian American, Buskey returns to her familys homeland and enlists her relatives there to help her in her questand discovers much more than she expected. The result is an extraordinary journey that traces one womans story across Ukraines difficult twentieth century, from a Galician village emerging from serfdom, to the bloodlands of Eastern Europe during World War II, to the Siberian hinterlands where Anna spent almost two decades in exile before receiving the rare opportunity to emigrate from the Soviet Union in the 1960s. In the course of her research, Megan encounters essential and sometimes disturbing aspects of recent Ukrainian history, such as Nazi collaboration, the rise and persistence of Ukrainian nationalism, and the shattering impact of Russias full-scale invasion in 2022. Yet her wide-ranging inquiries keep leading her back to universal questions: What does family mean? How can you forge connections between generations that span different cultures, times, and places? And, perhaps most hauntingly, how can you best remember a complicated past that is at once foreign and personal?
