Ukrainian poet, prose writer and essayist Yuri Andrukhovych was born in 1960 in Stanislav (Ukraine). He is the one credited with having radically renewed Ukrainian poetry in mid 1980's. The poetical group The Bu-Ba-Bu (Burlesque-Blaster-Buffoonery) established by him and his friends, poets Viktor Neborak and Olexandr Irvanets, has forever buried the accepted standards of 'socialist realist' poetry, proposing a new poetical quality, dominated by literary game, carnivalism, urbanism, and total aesthetical freedom.
