The annexation of Crimea and the war in Donbas have changed the lives of thousands of Ukrainians. The part of society that was forced to undergo a profound transformation in turbo mode was the Ukrainian military. They were the ones who had to say goodbye to the past, in which Russian soldiers were not perceived as enemies, over the graves of their comrades. This book is a memoir by one of these Ukrainian officers. The collection of short stories by V. Rayevsky is interesting because it traces military realities from the time of the collapse of the Soviet Union, through the difficult years of the beginning of Ukraine's independence and its army, to the Russian-Ukrainian war. The author also provides a broad panorama of the modern-day Donbas under Ukrainian control.
