Austrian award for Serhiy Zhadan
In times of war, it is extremely difficult to find the right words. But Serhiy Zhadan manages to do it.
The Ukrainian writer, Peace Prize laureate and frontman of a ska band finds a language to talk about the horrors of the war in Ukraine — and at the same time holds high the banner of hope.
Today he received the Austrian State Literature Prize — a high award, the presentation of which was a special honor for the organizers. Heartiest congratulations to Serhiy Zhadan!
