Katya Petrovska's book Must Be Esther raises the problem of the Holocaust, which is still silenced in our literature, which was committed by German Nazism on Ukrainian territory, in particular in one of the Kyiv tracts, sadly known as Babyn Yar. Not only the Jews of Kyiv and the surrounding areas were shot there, but also many Ukrainian patriots, including the famous poet Olena Teliha. Talented Russian authors wrote about this event in their time - a milestone poem by Yevgeny Yevtushenko and a novel by Anatoly Kuznetsov. And now a book by Katia Petrovska, a Kyivan by birth, has appeared in Germany, telling the story of those distant tragic events through the prism of family chronicles. The book has received a great response around the world and has already been translated into 18 languages. The Book of the XXI century publishing house offers a Ukrainian translation of the book. The book was translated by the famous Ukrainian translator Yurko Prokhasko, with an afterword by the project editor Petro Rykhlo.
