The last time Kyiv was bombarded, was by Hitler on June 22nd, 1941, on the very first day of the war. Today, when we are presenting these poems by Ukrainian authors, Kyiv is under assault again, this time by Putin. Ukraine, which gave the world the most beautiful songs about peace and where even prose often was read like poetry ( «novel in verse», Gogol), became an open bleeding wound of the world. Ukrainian poets are writing about the war.
