Join Irondequoit Public Library and the Ukrainian National Women’s League of America, Inc. on Wednesday, November 6^th at 7:00 PM for a Holodomor Remembrance program featuring Michael Cherkas, author of the graphic novel Red Harvest. Red Harvest is the fictional story, based on true stories as related to the Ukranian-Canadian author, of Mykola Kovalenko, a Ukrainian immigrant to Canada, who was the only member of his family to have survived the famine. Through his memories, we witness the horrors of what happened to his family and fellow villagers in the “breadbasket of Europe” as they struggled—not only to make sense of the war that was being waged against them—but, ultimately, to survive.

Michael Cherkas will be on site and signing copies of Red Harvest, which will be available for purchase.
