ENG: Oleksandr Boychenko—The Land Beyond the Zbruch

“The Land Beyond the Zbruch” is intellectual “cynicism” in the best sense of the word.
The essence can be summed up in three points:
About Us: How we try to be Europeans while our heads are filled with a jumble of Soviet and provincial nonsense.
Style: These are short columns. Each takes 3 minutes to read, but hits the mark—funny, sharp, and often “below the belt” (for politicians and pseudo-patriots).
Vibe: Imagine a very smart, ironic guy who, over a glass of wine, explains why the world around us is so absurd—but it’s not a tragedy, it’s a comedy.
Who’ll like it: Those who can’t stand boring lectures and love sharp, masculine humor about culture and politics.
