Ihor Pavlyuk, the Peoples Poet of Ukraine has presented the international literary world with the creation of a philosophical novel that speaks clearly and urgently about our world today. This is not simply a novel but an authentic voice creating a complex contemporary world populated by soldiers and poets alongside the angels: Fate, Chance, Space and Time.
Presented here in English for the first time with the gentle, sensitive and intuitive translation by Ukranian poet, Matvii Smirnov, and published by Buster Bodhi Press the rest of the world is given the opportunity to be challenged by the author's freedom to combine unique people, physical and philosophical components with humor, historical depth and wisdom.
In the words of Dmytro Dozdovskyi, PhD, Academic Fellow of the Shevchenko Institute of Literature of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine, Kyiv, Ukraine:
As you embark on this journey through Cultivating Diamonds, I invite you to embrace the complexity of existence. Allow the characters' experiences to resonate with your own and engage with the philosophical questions that arise. This novel is an invitation to reflect on your own life, your relationships, and the cultivation of your inner self.
From his nomination by the National Federation of Poetry Societies USA for the Nobel Prize in Literature 2026:
Writing under fire and terror of war, Pavlyuk continues to use his lyric poetry and literary talent to raise awareness about the gift of community and give voice for those who are devastated by war. During these difficult days of fear, invasion, and division, Pavlyuk's dedication and works advocate, strengthen, and heal a scarred country.
Poet Naomi Foyle reminds us that, In this time of global isolation and uncertainty, Pavlyuk's poetry reminds us that we all belong to this earth - and the cosmos.
