"The book raises a variety of reminiscences – from the French engineer Guillaume Levasseur de Boplan with his "description of Ukraine" to the American Kvitka Cisyk, who saw qualitative presentation of the world of Ukrainian songs as the cause of her life. A look at Ukraine through foreigners' eyes – that's a thing very interesting in general, especially now, that the young state has recently celebrated the 20th anniversary of its independence."The Ukrainian Style" by Linda Wicklund appeared as a result of 20 years of the author's missionary work in Ukraine and mesmerizing not only with creative, modern design ideas, but also with frankness of a diary, intensity of information, the author's sincere desire "to understand the Ukrainian soul". But the most impressive author's idea is opening for the world uniqueness of the Ukrainian culture, the refined taste of its carriers. And she also seems to warn Ukrainians not to pursue the cheap and changing fashion in order not to lose the essence and what makes foreigners return here again and again...
The book is intended for a wide range of readers – from interior design professionals to an average inhabitant of the mainland Ukraine or a Ukrainian Diaspora representative."
