Adelina Hedzenko

Adelina Hedzenko (born November 12, 2011, Yelanets) is a Ukrainian schoolgirl from a local gymnasium, a passionate lover of poetry who diligently preserves and promotes Ukrainian culture. She is taking her first steps in translating her own Ukrainian content into English. Fascinated by the exploration of conveying national flavour in a foreign language, she skillfully employs vivid imagery. Adelina deeply conveys the depth of the Ukrainian soul and the unique beauty of her native nature. Her poetry is a striking example of how young people can become ambassadors of Ukrainian literature worldwide. “Autumn Garden's Melody” is her first attempt to share her work on a European poetic platform.
