February 24, 2022. Russia invades Ukraine. All across Norway, people are watching. At least one of them is kneeling in front of the TV screen. That person is Hilding. Ukrainian Maksim Iovenko is shot by Russian soldiers. He had his hands in the air and only wanted to save his family from the war. Something happens to Hilding. He identifies with Maksim. Hilding decides to drive to Ukraine to help refugees.

*The Airspace Over Ukraine* was written by Geir Gulliksen, first as a play and then as a novel. Gulliksen is one of Norway’s leading authors and has written, among other works, *The Story of a Marriage* (2015) and *Be Kind Again* (2020).
