Orient Express Histories, Volume 6

Fiona Sampson
0/5 ( ratings)
Named after the famous train route connecting the capitals of Europe, Orient Express is devoted to introducing the writings of the Enlargement Europe countries to English readers, Including more established and young radical writers many of whom have never before been translated into English--from such countries as Albamia, Belarusse, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Croatia, the Czech Republic, Estonia, Hungary, Laivia, Lithuania, Macedonia, Moldova, Poland, Romama, Slovaka, Slovenia, Turkey, Ukrame, and the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia, Orient Express is a vital resource for readers interested in international fiction and is the only publication specializing in the literatures of all the countries poised to join the European Union. History as we learnt in school, is the capitalized march of public events, war, power, empire, religion, But histories - stories--run through our minds like times we can't get rid of, before we know it, we're wa king in step to them. Public or personal, they compete to be the story we live by. In this issue of Orient Express fifteen writers, from Estoma to Alabama, the Czech Republic to Belarusse, take a look at how personal stories fit against the great events of collective or political history. Including fiction, poetry, and polemies from, among others, Andrej Blunk and Michal Hvorecky throwing down the gauntlet for today's Central Europe, Bulgarian Georgi Gospoduov's much-talked-about debut novel; major poets Piotr Summer, Doris Kareva and, with part of a verse-novel, Joana lerqnim; post modern magicians Ardian-Christain Kuciuk and Aleksandar Prokopiev ; and Czech artist-poet Martin Zet.
