Myroslav Shkandrij is Professor Emeritus at the University of Manitoba and a former head of the Department of German and Slavic Studies. His research explores modern Ukrainian and Russian cultural history, including the avant-garde, Soviet literary politics, nationalism, imperialism, and contemporary debates around decolonization.

*In the Maelstrom* is the first comprehensive study of the “Galicia” Division to address both its wartime experience and its postwar fate, drawing on archival research, interrogation records, interviews, memoirs, testimonies, and creative literature
