The Vancouver Writers Fest and Upstart & Crow Literary Arts Studio welcomed Ukraine’s most celebrated writer, Andrey Kurkov, to discuss his work with international correspondent for The Globe and Mail, Nathan VanderKlippe. Kurkov will be back at the Vancouver Writers Fest with his International Booker Prize-longlisted novel, The Silver Bone.
Diary of an Invasion is a searing dispatch from the heart of Kyiv during the first year of the Russian assault. Kurkov’s award-winning novel, Grey Bees, is a dark foreshadowing of the devastation in the eastern part of Ukraine in which only two villagers remain in a village bombed to smithereens.
