The Tiger Hunters

Against the backdrop of Soviet literature, bound by censorship and ideology, Ivan Bahriany's novel «The Tiger Hunters», published in exile, became a true revelation. From each page of the book emerges the tragic story of the destruction of the Ukrainian people, but at the same time it carries within itself a belief in its indestructibility. Bahriany skillfully managed to combine the harsh truth of life with a gripping plot. The adventures of Hryhoriy Mnohohryhnyi, a fugitive from a Soviet concentration camp, are read in one breath.
Hunting stories, risky raids, romantic love  – all this makes the novel interesting for a wide range of readers.
Ivan Bahriany created an outstanding work that does not lose its relevance to this day, remaining a model for future generations of Ukrainian writers.
