Please join the Center for Slavic, East European and Eurasian Studies (CSEEES) at Two Dollar Radio Headquarters in German Village for a special reading with Oksana Lutsyshyna as we celebrate her latest book, Ivan and Phoebe.Ivan and Phoebe spotlights the uproarious generation that led the Ukrainian independence movement of 1990; from subjugation to revolution to post-Soviet rule, it investigates the difficulties and absurdities of societal change and the families that change with it. She will discuss the Revolution on the Granite (1990) in Ukraine, and life in Ukraine on the border of the two epochs - the Soviet era and the era of Independence.
Oksana Lutsyshyna is a Ukrainian writer, translator, and poet. For her latest novel, Ivan and Phoebe, she was awarded Lviv City of Literature UNESCO Prize (2020) and the Taras Shevchenko National Award in fiction (2021). She teaches the Ukrainian language and Eastern European literatures at the University of Texas at Austin.
