  1. 'Dad had said ‘no’ to the system and broken what was unthinkable to break: the habit of accepting lies and lying, even to yourself, for the sake of survival. The effects of movchanka, the Great Hush, were so much deeper than I imagined. There hadn’t only been The Unsayable, there had also been The Unthinkable.' -- from 'Strong Roots' by Olia Hercules

  6. Mit dem Roman "Der Tod des Löwen Cecil ergab Sinn" der ukrainischen Autorin Olena Stjažkina schließen wir uns der #UkrainianBookChallenge an, initiiert von Timothy Snyder: buff.ly/rNG0q0m.
    Vier Familien aus Donezk, drei Jahrzehnte Geschichte – erzählt zunächst abwechselnd auf Russisch und Ukrainisch, um sich schließlich dem Ukrainischen zuzuwenden. In der Übersetzung von Jakob Wunderwald ist dieser Sprachwechsel erkennbar: buff.ly/atD62HH.
