This book symbolizes the responses of Ukrainian Jewish and non-Jewish poets from the Soviet and post-Soviet periods to the tragic events of the Jewish massacres at Babyn Yar in September 1941. It is first presented here in the original and in English translation by John Hennessy and Ostap Kin. Together, the poems in Babyn Yar: Ukrainian Poets Respond aim to create a language capable of expressing the suffering and destruction of the Ukrainian Jewish population during the Holocaust, as well as other peoples murdered at the site.
