Stepan Protsyuk. Pid krylamy velykoji Materi. The Mental Maidan. (Under the Wings of the Great Mother)

Track
Reviews (0)

"First, this novel is a social and historical one – it touches upon the Euromaidan events. The protagonist wants to be in Maidan, but because of being physically ill he cannot be there. Why does he perceive that so painfully? What does he want?
The new novel by Stepan Protsiuk is the consciousness of the era as a "surgical" cut. Exposing all of its guts. Eerie? Sure! But this is the only way one can understand why he/she is like that... Why an invisible "mamay" sits on one shoulder, and a "vatnik" – on the other?"
In Ukrainian.

Tirza Atar. Vid viyny plachut. (They Cry Because of War)

These poems were composed by Israeli poet Tirza Atar. She composed them long ago, in the mid 70s.
