“Zhadan is my favorite writer and poet who represents Eastern Ukraine, a multi-faceted talent. He’s a public intellectual, an activist, an essayist, and a novelist. Voroshilovgrad is a 2010 novel about Eastern Ukraine in the twentieth century…It was written before Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, and it talks about the homecoming of the main hero…Voroshilovgrad is an ideal entry point into Zhadan’s work. From there, you can delve into his writing and enjoy his poetry and later works.” Read more...
