In March and April 2022, the Ukrainian writer Ostap Slyvynksy began to document the stories of refugees he was assisting as they arrived in Lviv railway station from points east, north and south of Ukraine. Like Milan Kundera-meets-Gabriel Garcia Marquez, the stories have a quality of fable in which heartbreaking experiences are interspersed with moments of humor. Translated from the Ukrainian into English by Taras Malkovych, these stories will be presented by actors, residents of Narrowsburg, and some (pre-recorded) guest readers including Tilda Swinton and Alan Cumming. Please join us in the beautiful setting of St. Paul's Lutheran Church for this beautiful presentation, directed by Gregory Triggs.

This event is free and open to the public, but we invite you to make a contribution that will go towards aid for Ukrainian refugees.
