Then in Chernivtsi and Around (in Ukrainian)
This memoir by the well-known Austrian writer and journalist, native of Chernivtsi, Georg Drozdowski (1899–1987).
A vivid portrait of Chernivtsi and a panoramic view of Bukovina in the early 20th century and the interwar period. With wit, genuine humor, and often a nostalgic sadness for what was lost, the author recounts memorable events, amusing anecdotes, and extraordinary urban stories. He recreates the customs and rituals of the various peoples who lived here, painting a picture of their lifestyles, traditions, and daily life. The book is of considerable interest to historians, ethnologists, local historians, and anyone eager to learn more about the recent past of the Bukovina region.
