This is an automatically translated description

This book will introduce you to the artists of the Ukrainian Renaissance who were (un)lucky enough to live in the Slovo House during the heyday and destruction of Ukrainian culture. Mike Johansen, Mykhailo Semenko, Les Kurbas and Valentyna Chystiakova, Mykola Kulish, Hryhoriy Epik, Leonid Chernov-Maloshychenko, and Serhiy Pylypenko appear on the pages of the book as characters who break into our time in different ways. The former residents of Slovo radically change the lives of the characters who find themselves in those apartments today. At the same time, the views, lifestyles, values of the present and the past, united by one common "Word", intertwine.

In the book, we get acquainted with the participants of the Ukrainian Renaissance not through the prism of tragedy, but through the perspective of looking at their creativity and contribution to the development of contemporary culture . They have a story to tell.
