Hryhorii Kosinka, pseud. for Hryhorii Strilets (1899 - 1934) was a Ukrainian author, known for his outstanding short stories. He was a member of several influential literary organizations of the 1920s and 1930s, including Hrono, MARS, and Aspys. With a distinctive, unique style of writing, most of his works reflected the attitudes, ideas, and relations of the Ukrainian peasantry during the years of revolutionary upheaval and war. Accused of spreading "counterrevolutionary theories" and "banditry" through his short stories, he was arrested during Stalin's Great Purge and shot. The current collection contained some of his best, early stories, including "V zhytakh," "Anketa," and "Favst," the last one never finished in his lifetime. Very good .
