While the world watched the uprising on the Maidan as an episode in geopolitics, those in Ukraine during the extraordinary winter of 2013-14 lived the revolution as an existential transformation: the blurring of night and day, the loss of a sense of time, the sudden disappearance of fear, the imperative to make choices.   In this lyrical and intimate book, Marci Shore evokes the human face of the Ukrainian Revolution. Grounded in the true stories of activists and soldiers, parents and children, Shore's book blends a narrative of suspenseful choices with a historian's reflections on what revolution is and what it means. She gently sets her portraits of individual revolutionaries against the past as they understand it-and the future as they hope to make it. In so doing, she provides a lesson about human solidarity in a world, our world, where the boundary between reality and fiction is ever more effaced. 606 $aHISTORY / Russia & the Former Soviet Union$2bisacsh 606 $aHistorie$2FBC 606 $aUkrainske revolution$2FBC 607 $aUkraine$xHistory$yRevolution of Dignity, 2013-2014$vPersonal narratives 615 7$aHISTORY / Russia & the Former Soviet Union. 615 7$aHistorie 615 7$aUkrainske revolution 676 $a947.7086 686 $2z 700 $aShore$b Marci$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut.$01144424 701 $aShore$b Marci$01144424 801 0$bDE-B1597 801 1$bDE-B1597 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910796360703321 996 $aUkrainian Night$93869479 997 $aUNINA
