Stories of Hope from Ukraine and Malawi.
Halyna Budilova and Lester Mkanda, two extraordinary authors share powerful stories that are now part of Ireland’s literary landscape.
Halyna, from Ukraine, and Lester, from Malawi, come from vastly different backgrounds but share a common thread—transforming trauma into resilience, and hardship into hope. Through their books, “A Magical Summer in Tír na nÓg!” and “Up from the Dust” they invite us into their personal journeys, offering lessons in strength, survival, and gratitude.
