Book series draws on Ukrainian heritage - Yorkton This WeekCalvin Daniels
January 30, 2021 Long-time readers of Yorkton This Week might recall the name Marion Mutala. Way back in 2012 the Saskatchewan-based author was in the city giving readings from Baba's Babushka: A Magical Ukrainian Christmas and Easter, a children's book drawn from Mutala's Ukrainian heritage. Then in 2020 an article appeared regarding the author's release of My Dearest Dido: The Holodomor Story a passionate account of the Great Ukrainian Famine of 1932-1933, known as the Holodomor. Based on actual events and documented eyewitness accounts, this story consists of correspondence between two fictional characters – Hanusia Hrabowa in Saskatoon and her grandfather, Dido Bohdan, in Hafford, SK, supplemented by Hanusia's personal diary. The book is now available in audio form too. And now Mutala, who grew up in the Hanley/Keaston area, but has lived in Saskatoon since 1980, has released Baba's Babushka: A Magical Journey to Ukraine which follows Baba's Babushka: Magical Ukrainian Adventure which has her first book in the series. Tell us a bit about the story? Genre? Vertical Divider

Remembering the Holodomor Ukrainian famine and genocide - Battlefords NowAngela Brown

Marion Mutala wanted to tell the stories of some of the families affected by the tragedy and those who lived through it, so more people would learn about the Holodomor and would never forget. The Saskatoon-based award-winning author read from her new book My Dearest Dido: The Holodomor Story at the annual Holodomor Commemorative event in North Battleford Wednesday night...

Sask Poly-Talk February 5, 2018 Employees' Weekly Newsletter
On January 26, more than 100 students and Instructors participated in a Building Bridges event organized by Indigenous Services and Intercultural Services at the Saskatoon Main Campus. Through a program rich with storytelling, music and dance, participants learned of the similarities between Métis and Ukrainian cultures, and their unique differences, as well as the role of the Métis in helping early Ukrainian settlers, and others, adapt to life in the 'new world'. Many thanks to storytellers and performers from both cultures for enriching the experience for all – Ukrainian violinist, Bill Gulka; Ukrainian author/storyteller, Marion Mutala; Métis illustrator/artist, Donna Lee Dumont; Métis fiddlers, Phil and Dallas Boyer; and our very own Brian Gallagher, Emcee Extraordinaire. To close the event, everyone enjoyed a steaming bowl of borscht accompanied by delicious bannock. The goal of the Building Bridges initiatives is to provide an opportunity to enhance appreciation and understanding between cultures. Please join us on March 8th for a Building Bridges International Women's Day Event, which will be held at the Saskatoon Main Campus. |
