City of Lions
Journal Title: Kyiv-Mohyla Humanities Journal - Year 2018, Vol 5, Issue
Abstract
City of Lions is an important book on the Lviv city. Though much attention has been paid to Lviv, the stories of the city have by no means been played out. This pair of essays gives readers an invaluable opportunity to hear the voices of ordinary people, restored and allowed to be heard, out of a vast void they were trapped in for decades.
