After this long-suppressed culture won independence in 1991, Ukrainian literature shed its underground existence. Published in 1996, From Three Worlds is witness to this Ukrainian literary renaissance as the first major publication of Ukrainian literature in English translation. The anthology includes fiction, non-fiction, photographs, art, and poetry (presented bilingually on facing pages).

"A vigorous collection of prose and poetry showcasing the work of fifteen of the former Soviet republic's best contemporary writers."
