Book Launch: Myrna Kostash, Ghosts in a Photograph
Thursday, November 14, 6:30 PM

Join us in person at the Ukrainian Museum of Canada as we proudly host the Saskatoon book launch of Ghosts in a Photograph by acclaimed nonfiction writer Myrna Kostash. This mesmerizing book explores the journey of Kostash's grandparents from Galicia, now Ukraine, to Alberta at the turn of the twentieth century.
The book's genius is in how it weaves Ukrainian and Canadian political history, contextualizing the stories of two familes (one homesteaders, one working-class Edmontonian) with the historic struggles for Ukrainian independence and the genocidal "clearing of the plains" in Canada.

With Kostash in attendance to read from and speak about her book, this will be an extraordinary literary event.
