Katia Sinchenko
Katia Sinchenko shares her harrowing experience of the Russian invasion of Ukraine alongside a deeply personal history of a country with a long legacy of resistance and resilience.
February 24, 2022, was supposed to be an ordinary day. Slightly tipsy and walking home from a party the night before, Katia Sinchenko watched as the sky lit up orange and a crash echoed through the dawn. Somehow, instinctively, she knew she was one of the first witnesses to Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine.
What follows is a memoir of a woman who grew up in a country constantly forced to reform and rebuild as empires rise and fall around it. Sinchenko takes us through her youth spent learning to assemble a rifle in PE class to an adulthood in exile trying to find a way to fight for her country. But The Ukrainian is also a story about cycles of power and corruption, and how those who ultimately pay the price for these failures are everyday people. Women struggling to maintain a sense of normalcy, children coming of age in the shadow of war, and so many men lost to the frontlines.
With a confident and singular voice, Sinchenko turns her eye as a journalist and documentarian inward and examines what it means to be an ordinary individual fighting for the right to exist in a world that keeps trying to erase both you and your country. This is not a hero’s journey, but heroes are not the only ones who can imagine what freedom feels like.

“With minimal politics and maximum humanity, this is a must-read for anyone who cares about the world. A stark reminder: War can strike anywhere, anytime, without warning. This is not just a story—it’s a wake-up call.”
(Lee Ann Ward, USA Today bestselling author, founder of Writing Away Refuge retreats)“A powerful testament to the Ukrainian spirit, told through the intimate, unflinching voice of a woman who’s lived through the events the world had watched on the news. This book isn’t just a story; it’s a window into the Ukrainian soul, revealing the strength that binds us, whether on the frontlines or in distant exile. For anyone seeking to understand the psychology of a people enduring war, this is essential reading. It’s a call to empathy, a reminder of our shared humanity, and a beacon of insight for all who care about Ukraine’s fight and its displaced sons and daughters.”
(Vasyl Miroshnychenko, Ambassador of Ukraine to Australia and New Zealand)“As I read this book, it felt like Katia had handed me her private diary, filled with raw, heartfelt moments. It’s brimming with unflinching honesty—confessions, fear, pain, despair, but also faith, hope, and love.”
(Viktoria Kravchenko, military psychologist, Ukrainian Armed Forces; cofounder of UAF volunteer organization Veteranka)
