Списки (Spysky, “Lists”) is a new book by Myroslav Laiuk, published by Ukraïner publishing house in May 20, 2025. It contains reports and essays about losses during the war, about what is valuable to a person and why. Quietism Poster Regular by Michael Rafailyk is used in the book’s cover and titles.

The book is the result of three years of work: trips, interviews, observations, textual and photographic documentation of what Ukrainians call their greatest losses during the war. It follows up on Myroslav’s previous book, Bakhmut, for which he was awarded the Yuriy Shevelyov Prize in 2024.

These are testimonies of military and civilian personnel and reflections of the author. These are the photos that Myroslav Laiuk took during three years of trips and observations: from the front line to the rear hospitals. These are stories about art in Kharkiv and the moment of the shelling of Derzhprom, about flooded Kherson, about the work of the rehabilitation center near Lviv and the Kyiv military hospital during the capture of Avdiivka. These are also stories about fighters who lost their sight, about a firefighter who came to his own house on call, about children who study at a school opposite the Kinburn Spit and lose their childhood. These are stories about how Ukrainian classics interpret the concept of freedom and land and how this affects modern narratives.
