Join HREC Education’s invited host Mateusz Świetlicki with author Cynthia LeBrun reading from her historical fiction Black Sunfowers (2024, 496 pages), winner of the International Petersen Literary Emerging Writers Award. A heartfelt exploration of one family’s survival during the Holodomor and of courage, love, and the enduring spirit of the Ukrainian people under Stalin, it draws from personal testimonies and extensive historical research.
And as the 20th century recedes from us, it’s stories like this one that can put a human face on what would otherwise be a pile of grim statistics.
