“Poetry” by Volodymyr A. Bohdan is a book “that will surely touch your heart,” explains Tamara Miller, compiler of the book.
“Because of the universal themes of human relationships it addresses, it will unquestionably resonate with all readers. It speaks of love, of the joys and pains of parenthood, of couple break-ups, of suffering, of memories, of familiar life crises… in brief it covers the spectrum of the human emotions that run relationships among husbands, wives, fathers, daughters, mothers, sons, etc…, something we can all identify with,” she writes.
Mr. Bohdan was born in 1935 and grew up in Mena, Ukraine, and then emigrated to the United States in 1949. He earned a master’s degree in chemical engineering from McNeese State University in Lake Charles, La. After working in the petrochemical industry for approximately a decade, he decided to pursue other interests, including writing poetry, composing music and writing and publishing “Avoiding Extinction: Children of the Kulak” (1992), a book about his family’s arduous flight from the Soviets. Mr. Bohdan died in 2015.
