Unfortunately, I still read Ukrainian rather slowly. I’ll work on it in the future, but for now I’m delighted to be getting exposed to Ukraine’s literary world through great friends like Andriy who is known to make waves with book reviews like this one. It’s about the poetry of this year’s Tarash Shevchenko literary prize, awarded by (I think) Ukraine’s Ministry of Culture.
