Will Ballantyne

Across Lviv Will Ballantyne

Take a trip to somewhere in between. Have you ever thought about teaching abroad? Where would you go? In a country torn apart by corruption and violence, the idealistic Scottish author takes up a teaching post in an English language school in Ukraine circa 1996 determined to make a difference. Through a series of interconnected stories of deceit, betrayal, love and loneliness before the Orange Revolution and Euromaidan, the author encounters the people of Lviv in a time and place, though harsh, filled with romance, humour, and hope for the future.
