"The collection of Lviv batyar songs created by Andriy Panchyshyn will takes you to the Lviv that today is almost gone. Sincere street romanticism, unique humor, colorful language..."
Actually, these are the texts that – due to Viktor Morozov – have become very bright songs from the albums "A Batiar's Heart" and "Batiar Blues". We have already mentioned their singularity – so now let me emphasize another thing. These texts – despite the excellent styling as if the early 20th century – still remain surprisingly relevant. They are not as overtly topical, as, for example, a number of songs that were created under the impact of Euromaidan – but, you know, there are things that do not change. And the human nature – good or not that good – is one of those things. So, you can be sure that you will find here a lot of interesting, funny stuff, and the things that will make you truly thoughtful. In Ukrainian. Edition type: soft cover Format: 146x206 mm Number of pages: 104 Publisher: Autograf, Kyiv Contents:
The portrait of a Ukrainian woman more often presents her being silent than when she is talking. But without the experience of this silence, there would be no voice that sounds in this collection. The voice that defends the right to speak sincerely about acute grief, generational traumas, the courage of love..

Simple knowledge that helps appreciate every voice heard in the morning.

Sixty poems about the memory, born of love, and about the fire, which only leaves tenderness behind. Sixty attempts to outline the light and speak about the air over the city. The Ship List is a list of those who have left, but who cannot be forgotten. A list of cities, where somebody is always waiting for you. Probably, the author's most intimate book.

80 new poems written over the past two years. 80 attempts to experience by touch the time that we live in, that we breathe, that we talk about. The time every touch of which burns. The time where private diary entries may turn out to be a military chronicle, and Biblical stories – morning news.

..almost every woman can do that: give birth to a baby – and start to intensively recall her own childhood; see her husband go to the war – and start drawing parallels with the wars long past. But not everyone can with such love and determination express that, making the past as sharp as the present, and the present – as deep as the past.

"...I think that the most important things about my poems are sight and memory. Medieval Christianity commands us to remember the four "last things" – death, Judgment, hell, and paradise. But while these things have not been fulfilled, we remember the penultimate thing. Let's call it – to be short – life." Borys Khersonsky
