Dear Friend of Ukrainian History and Truth-Seeking Documentary Art,

We are pleased to offer you a powerful and deeply emotional documentary book from Ukraine — “Ukraine: The Infernal 22nd. People’s Diary” (Kyiv, Artil, 2023). This limited-edition volume captures the first months of Russia’s full-scale invasion as witnessed and recorded by ordinary Ukrainians — journalists, civilians, volunteers, scientists, teachers, artists, soldiers’ families, and eyewitnesses across the country.

The book consists of hundreds of short but vivid, sincere, and deeply personal texts describing the shock, fear, resistance, survival, and endurance of Ukrainians from the first hours of 24 February 2022. These testimonies form a mosaic of real voices that document both suffering and courage during bombardments, evacuations, occupation, liberation, and daily life under war.

Accompanied by striking photographs of destroyed cities, front-line realities, civilian tragedies, and heroic resilience, the book becomes a historical document of exceptional value. Each chapter contains authentic testimonies, emotional reflections, factual accounts, and visual evidence of the crimes and consequences of Russia’s aggression.

A limited print run makes this edition especially desirable for collectors of modern military history, war journalism, Ukrainian studies, photo-documentary books, and those who support Ukraine.
