Olesya Yaremchuk, *Our Others: Stories of Ukrainian Diversity*. Zenia Tompkins and Hanna Leliv, trans. Stuttgart: Ibidem Verlag, 2020.

This book delves into the histories and personal stories of fourteen ethnic minority groups residing in contemporary Ukraine: Czechs and Slovaks, Meskhetian Turks, Swedes, Romanians, Hungarians, Roma, Jews, ‘Liptaks’, Gagauzes, Germans, Vlachs, Poles, Crimean Tatars, and Armenians. Through a blend of academic research, fieldwork, and interviews, Olesya Yaremchuk’s literary reportages provide realistic, insightful, and historically informed portrayals of how these varied groups arrived in Ukraine and their experiences within its borders. Complemented by striking photographs that animate the reportages, this work acts as a record of the numerous voluntary and involuntary migrations that have influenced Ukraine throughout the centuries. Additionally, the book presents a heartfelt—and timely—examination of the small pockets of cultural diversity in Ukraine that have resisted the Soviet drive for linguistic, cultural, and religious homogenization, warranting acknowledgment within the larger framework of Ukraine’s cultural identity.
