Not another book about the Maidan or the war in Donbas, though both appear, but about Ukraine itself: what is fascinating, funny and terrifying about it. The author travels through a state in the making, sometimes post-apocalyptic, sometimes roaring with enthusiasm, trying to understand both its 'pro-Western' and 'pro-Eastern' sides, and why those words need quotation marks.
