TAKES of Our Time: Ordinary Guy at War
from Tales of Our Time
For September, we're talking about different books we think you should know about as summer turns to fall! This week, I had the extraordinary pleasure of sitting down with Dimko Zhluktenko to discuss his memoir "Ordinary Guy at War". Meant for readers outside of Ukraine, this memoir follows Zhluktenko's life as an ordinary guy fighting for the chance to live freely. We discuss the journey from text notes on a phone to actual published book, the value that Dimko gleaned from the writing process, and the meaning he hopes that everyone can get from reading it. What would you do if you were in his shoes?
