About Onverwoestbaar: The Human Face of Ukraine
As a young reporter, Arnaud De Decker traveled through Ukraine, a country torn apart by the largest war on the European continent since World War II. He met construction workers, students, and teachers who suddenly became soldiers, as well as women and children forced to live without their loved ones. He witnessed how a free nation with big dreams transformed into a country in survival mode, where fear and grief went hand in hand with resilience and hope.
This book is not only a collection of the stories he encountered along the way but also an insider's look at a journalist venturing deeper into the war. A raw and honest account of loss, courage, and the human side of war—revealing how a journalist can sometimes cease to be just an observer.
"The young Arnaud De Decker poured his heart and soul into his reports from the Ukrainian front." – Humo
