Yesterday, a new book by Nina Horyk, "The Return of the Mavka," was presented at the regional scientific library named after Olena Pchilka. "My Volyn, My Freedom," "The Territory of the Word," "On a Fair Day over Ukraine" – these books of poetry are distinctive creative milestones in the life of the poet Nina Horyk, who nurtures a love for Ukrainian belles-lettres among the youth of Kovel. Let us recall that back in 2002 she proposed a highly relevant manual for teachers, "Thematic Lesson Plans in Ukrainian Literature." "I don't know which there is more of in me," reflects Nina Horyk, "the writer or the teacher? And in the end, I forget and write verses, or rather, I greet with the Word. It is my profession, the meaning of my life and the mediator between the soul and the Universe, and the rainbow that connects hearts." \n
