Bohdan Tkachuk. The Abyss of Sin. From the Holocaust to the Genocide. Lviv: Rastr-7, 2022. 116 p.
The book by the well-known journalist and editor Bohdan Tkachuk covers a black page in the tragic history of the Jewish community of Kolomyia during the Second World War. The author presents documentary evidence of eyewitnesses to those events. These interviews are now priceless, as the Kolomyia residents who spent hours telling the author about all the horrors of the Jewish ghetto are no longer alive.
The publication will be useful to historians and researchers of Kolomyia's past, as it contains a large amount of documentary evidence.
