This revised & updated edition of ” Culture Smart! Ukraine” reveals a country in the throes of change. The euphoria of the famous Orange Revolution has vanished. The momentum for reform has been checked & the forces of authoritarianism have returned. Even so, modernization continues apace & people are eager to be seen as European. The recent political instability highlights the contradictions of Ukrainian society. Ukrainians are proud of their roots, & reticent about the traumas of their past; the country participates in international space programs & produces the world`s largest aircraft, but still lives in a world of superstitions. The Ukrainian way of life is intertwined with ancient customs, the old Soviet legacy, & the search for a new European identity. What strikes visitors to this fascinating & important country is the heady mix of ancient history & youthful energy, the resilience of the people, & their generosity of spirit. For the twentieth anniversary of its independence, Ukraine received quite a present--hosting the key matches of Euro 2012. Now it has a game of its own: to show the world that it is a serious player. This new edition of ” Culture Smart! Ukraine” will enable you to visit the country with open eyes. It describes the history that has shaped the Ukrainian psyche, explains present-day values & attitudes, & offers practical advice on what to expect & how to behave. It aims to make you feel at ease, whether you are shopping in a market, dining out, or attending a business meeting. ...

Pablo Simo`s life is a mess. His career as an architect is at a dead-end; reduced to designing soulless office buildings desecrating the heart of Buenos Aires. His marriage seems to be one endless argument with his wife over the theatrics of their rebellious teenage daughter. Everything changes with the unexpected appearance of Leonor, a beautiful young woman living in the apartment of Nelso Jara, a blackmailer murdered & buried in the foundations of a building finished twenty years before. Pineiro once again demonstrates her capacity to reveal the things hidden behind the facades of our existence; human relationships based on habit & cowardice, rather than love; on excessive ambition & personal gain, rather than morality. ...
