The February 2021 issue of Words Without Borders is all young Russophone writers in English translation:
Our February 2021 issue features nine young writers on the cutting edge of Russophone literature. The term “Russophonia,” coined by literary scholar Naomi Caffee, speaks to the diversity of Russian-language authors today—from Russian nationals to Indigenous writers in post-Soviet countries to émigrés around the world.
Featuring work by Olga Breininger, Alisa Ganieva, Ksenia Zheludova, Danyil Zadorozhnyi, Galina Rymbu, Ilya Danishevsky, Alla Gorbunova, Xenia Emelyanova, Dinara Rasuleva, and an introductory essay from guest editors Hilah Kohen and Josephine von Zitzewitz.
Translations by Anne O. Fisher, Helena Kernan, Elina Alter, Hilah Kohen, Josephine von Zitzewitz, Sabrina Jaszi, Isaac Stackhouse Wheeler, Reilly Costigan-Humes, and Katherine E. Young.
