Dovzhenko was a famous Ukrainian writer and film director. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alexander_Dovzhenko


Autobiographically inspired, The Enchanted Desna can be regarded as a story told from a young boy’s point of view. He recognizes life’s cycle and death amidst the natural beauty and plentiful bounty of nature — A certain mystery and sadness, the inevitability and law that out of what seemingly ends, come the pleasant things of this world. Throughout the journey, the reader is reminded of life’s delicate balance or as Sashko, the young boy, witnesses, the negative abundance of things: Riding a hay-filled wagon about to tip over is unpleasant. It’s unpleasant to look at a large fire, but pleasant to look at its embers. How pleasant it is to hug a foal. Or at daybreak to see your calf wandering in all by itself, to know it found its way home in the dark. I loved thunder, although it scared Mother, the downpour and loud wind for the gifts they brought to the orchard.

Translated into English by Anatole Bilenko.
