Listeners will notice the skepticism in Stefan Rudnicki’s voice as he narrates some beliefs about Ukrainian history, like the theory that Attila the Hun was Ukrainian. The story illustrates the wide range of conflicting views that exist about the nation’s past. Mostly, his deep voice clearly navigates about a thousand years of history, with author Andrew Wilson paying special attention to art, literature, and religion. Rudnicki’s tone becomes less formal as Wilson shifts into a more detailed history of post-Soviet Ukraine. Rudnicki’s voice rises with the author’s admiration for the protesters who stood up to political violence and corruption. There is a lot of information, so Wilson’s summaries at the ends of chapters are helpful. J.A.S. © AudioFile 2022, Portland, Maine
