The Life of Maria — Serhiy Zhadan

The Life of Maria is a work by Serhiy Zhadan addressing eternal themes through the story of a woman named Maria — an image encompassing the fate of all mothers.

The Life of Maria by Serhiy Zhadan turns to the biblical image of Mary, transposing it into the context of modern Ukraine.

Maria is every woman, every mother who suffers and hopes. Zhadan creates a text permeated with sacredness and simultaneously utterly earthly, humane, and accessible.
