Myroslava Hartmond reads "In the Apple's Ripening," a poem reflecting on grief, her uncle's tragic death, and the friendship and love they shared.
Myroslava Hartmond is British-Ukrainian, spending much of her life between Oxford, suburban south London, and Kyiv, where she ran an art gallery for six years. She has written on monumental propaganda, counterculture, and visual art, but the plague prompted her to take up creative writing again. She is now working on a poetry collection titled Songs from Afar.
