I and a dear friend just got our English-language copies of Victoria Amelina's @vamelina unfinished book this week. Her life was cut short in 2023 by a russian missile striking a city center in Kramatorsk, Ukraine on June 27, 2022. 🧵 I have been staring at the finished book in my hands for days now, so thankful for the strong women who have completed Vika's project, yet frozen when I tried to open it to read.
