New York Elegies

Ukrainian Poems on the City
Herausgeber: Kin, Ostap

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Ukrainian poets connected themselves to a powerful myth of New York, the myth of urban modernity and problematic vitality. The city of exiles and outsiders sees itself reflected in the mirror that newcomers and exiles created. By adding new voices and layers to this amalgam, it is possible to observe the expanded picture of this worldly poetic city.
