When her father self-immolated on Maidan Square in central Kyiv in an act of protest, she held a press conference to explain to journalists that he acted “in sound mind.” Later, in battle on the front line, she would learn via radio-phone that her husband had been killed nearby.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn 2023, veteran war correspondent Lara Marlowe met Mykytenko while covering the war, and found her to be “one of the most extraordinary people I have interviewed in 42 years of journalism.” From their months of conversations, Marlowe stitched together Mykytenko’s accounts into a riveting revelation of what modern warfare is really like.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTold entirely in Mykytenko's first person voice, it is a story of cluster bombs and ballistic missiles. Mykytenko has most recently commanded a drone unit, and the scenes of launching drone attacks, and of being attacked by drones, are electrifying and harrowing. At the same time there are vestiges of WWII: trench warfare, no-man’s lands seeded with mines, even chemical weapons.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe result is an urgent story of a besieged nation, a vivid look at the changing face of warfare, and the stirring tale of an inspirational woman fighting for her country's survival.","brand":"Melville House","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45993956540671,"sku":"9781685891879","price":29.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0452\/0886\/2873\/files\/9781685891879_s600x595.jpg?v=1775584754","url":"https:\/\/massivebookshop.com\/products\/9781685891879","provider":"MASSIVE BOOKSHOP","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
