Our Enemies Will Vanish: Book Talk with Yaroslav Trofimov

No journalist has covered the war in Ukraine with greater knowledge, compassion, and insight than Yaroslav Trofimov, the chief foreign affairs correspondent of the Wall Street Journal.

Born and raised in Kyiv, Trofimov has written a powerful new book about the war entitled Our Enemies Will Vanish: The Russian Invasion and Ukraine's War of Independence, which will be published by Penguin Press in January 2024.

Drawing on his vast experience covering wars and conflicts in various parts of the world since 2001, Trofimov explains how the people of Ukraine against all odds have withstood one of the most powerful militaries in the world and endured unspeakable horrors. His account captures the bravery of ordinary Ukrainians risking their lives to preserve their country's independence. In his book, Trofimov combines his first-hand experience at the front lines with profound military analysis, providing unique insight into all levels of Ukraine's fight for survival.

Please join Trofimov and Susan Glasser of the New Yorker for an engaging discussion of Our Enemies Will Vanish: The Russian Invasion and Ukraine's War of Independence. A book signing and reception will follow the event. Copies will be available for purchase.
