Mykhaylo Kotsjubyns‘kyy. Tini zabutykh predkiv. (mp3). (Shadows of forgotten ancestors)

Even if this record included only one story it would be worth having it in a private collection. "Shadows of forgotten ancestors" – it’s even difficult to imagine the number of people all over the world, who associate this title with Ukrainian film-making, with Ukrainian culture and Ukraine in general. For these people Ukraine is not simple and mundane, but deep, enigmatic, mythical and mysterious…At the same time, it is strange that many Ukrainians don’t even know that this Serhiy Paradzhanov’s film was made basing on the motifs of the same name story written by Mykhailo Kots’ubynskiy. Everyone, who has ever watched the screen version, knows that almost always the book is more profound than the film - it reveals more and does not abide by any limitations. To tell the truth this is not the case, but it doesn’t prove the opposite, because the book is never inferior to the film. Both are so different, but equally beautiful and absorbing… However, don’t forget - there are three more stories available on this record, and each of them is worth attention. Anyway, dear listener, this is your attention, which they deserve, because we stop multiplying our words here.
