Summary/Abstract: At the Kyiv Book Arsenal, Ukrainian intellectuals delved into the profound experiences of living on the edge during war. The discussion, featuring writers, philosophers, and human rights activists, explored how extreme experiences shape personal and collective identities. Participants shared poignant stories of resilience, solidarity, and the struggle to maintain a sense of normalcy amidst chaos. The conversation highlighted the importance of documenting these experiences to preserve the truth and provide a sense of purpose. The panelists emphasized the need for Ukraine to assert its narrative and resist the normalization of evil. They also discussed the psychological impact of war, the role of women in maintaining societal stability, and the existential challenges faced by those on the front lines. This dialogue underscored the enduring spirit of the Ukrainian people and their determination to overcome adversity.
