Lina Kostenko – A Voice That Never Broke
She never wrote "convenient" texts. She wasn’t afraid to call things by their names. She didn’t chase fame, yet she became the voice of an era.
Lina Kostenko is more than just a poet. She is a symbol of resilience, honesty, and true intellect. When the Soviet regime tried to silence her, she chose silence over lies. Her books were banned for 16 years, but she never compromised her principles.
Today, her poetry feels prophetic—about war, about the strength of the human spirit, about Ukraine, which is always fighting but never giving up.
