This is an automatically translated description

The novel "With a Strong Flap of Wings" is dedicated to the November Rising, the heroic struggle of Ukrainians for freedom. As an eyewitness to these events, Antin Krushelnytsky describes the difficult situation in Galicia during the confrontation that raged on its territory, the unwillingness of the majority of officials and intellectuals to move away from the traditions of the Austro-Hungarian Empire and accept the possibility of creating a Ukrainian state. The author conveys with a tremendous sense of presence the enthusiasm and courage of young people and the military who sought to establish Ukrainian statehood in their land and the tragedy of retreating in the face of much more powerful enemy forces.
