yup. we've slipped right into the great powers narrative.
When I wrote "Bloodlands: Europe Between Hitler and Stalin" I wanted to explain why Ukraine was the center of the twentieth century’s agonies. Even as our own troubles seem so intense, we should understand the place on its own terms.https://lithub.com/the-20-best-works-of-nonfiction-of-the-decade/ …

Bloodlands is a great book. It’s an awful history that Americans are generally ignorant of, but we need to understand it.

A great book indeed! BTW, somebody needs to write a history of the OUN and its anti-Soviet insurgency in Ukraine that lasted into the 1950s. I think you're just the person to do it.

This and "Black Earth" are essential reading, even for those with an above average grasp of the history of the region (which is a crucial part of Europe's history).
