Вітрила
"Вітрила" – друга збірка поезій молодої поетеси Ліни Костенко. Книга складається з ліричних віршів, в яких авторка правдиво і щиро оспівує красу рідного краю, велич людини-трудівника, глибину прекрасного людського почуття – кохання.
Є в книзі поема-казка. Цікава за своїм сюжетом, написана в глибоко народному плані, казка в хороших алегоричних образах звеличує красу людської душі, гнівно картає двоєдушних, злих людей, показує, що краса людини – це її діла

Kostenko was born in a family of teachers. In 1936, she moved from Rzhyshchiv to Kiev, where she finished her secondary education.
Lina graduated with distinction from the Maxim Gorky Literature Institute in Moscow in 1956. Following her graduation she published three collections of poetry in 1957, 1958, and 1961. These books became immensely popular among her Ukrainian readers, however they also forced her into publication silence as she was unwilling to submit to Soviet authorities.
It wasn't until 1977 (16 years later) that her next major collection was published. She followed this with several more collections and a children's book called The Lilac King. In 1979 she followed with one of her greatest works the historical novel in verse, Marusia Churai, about at 17th century Ukrainian folksinger. Her most recent collection is Berestechko, a book length historical poem.
