A deep and emotional novel-biography about a prominent Ukrainian woman

On the third of October 1833, a beautiful girl Pelageya was born to the Bartosh family in the village of Terebenky in the Hlukhiv region.

She will go down in history under her husband's surname as Pelageia Yakivna Bartosh-Lytvynova, an ethnographer and folklorist. Without much wealth, powerful patrons, or noble status, she would open a school, create textbooks for it on her own, publish several albums of folk patterns, become a corresponding member of the Paris Anthropological Society, and preserve the memory of folk beliefs, songs, crafts, and traditions for future generations...

But all this is for later. Now the newborn Polinka, as her mother tenderly calls her, is looking at the world with enthusiasm. And her parents wish her a quiet and happy life.
