The Spring Issue of B O D Y kicks off today with some poetry. I’ll have some fiction from Russia by Andrey Filimonov translated by Richard Coombes and Anne O. Fisher followed by a discussion the two translators had with Filimonov about his work, his influences, growing up in Siberia, Slavic word games and where he met his characters in real life, among other subjects.
The other European fiction will be an excerpt from the soon-to-be published novel Blind Man by Slovenian writer and candidate for national chess master Mitja Čander, translated by Rawley Grau.
There will be a wide range of work you can read about in more detail in this piece introducing the issue, including a schedule of what’s coming up daily throughout the month.
