- Description
In Writing Ukraine, Myrna Kostash reflects on how her travels and the war have shaped her understanding of Ukrainian Canadian identity. Rooted in her author-in-residence lecture at Athabasca University, Kostash engages in a self-reflective critique of her work, delving into the connections between history, Canadian identity, and Ukrainian heritage. Overall, the short work has a conversational tone despite the deep topics that it covers, which could make it appealing to even struggling readers. This book blends identity and history with self-reflection, thus deeply enriching lessons centering on critical thinking, empathy, and understanding of different perspectives. Additionally, this work can be used to explore the skill of self-critiquing, or more broadly, to inspire exploration of culture and history. In lessons, the insights provided in the book offer a springboard for conversation on current issues internationally, enabling students to grasp a more critical approach to what is happening in the world.
