Invasion: Russia’s Bloody War and Ukraine’s Fight for Survival
by Luke Harding
“This feels to me a bit like a watercolor, in that it’s painted very quickly, with incredible beauty but also real clarity and, in this case, horror. Luke writes brilliantly about what’s happened in Ukraine, not just since the invasion, but he puts it into historical context. This book is not a finished product as, unfortunately, the war is ongoing, and it only goes a few months in. But it’s an incredible combination of really deep research about this appalling conflict and the sweep of history, and the experiences of a war journalist being in a location and the really visceral nature of just being in a war.”
