"Trainspotting set against a grim post-Soviet backdrop." --
Newsweek World Literature Today's Recommended Summer Reads 2016 A
city-dwelling executive heads home to take over his brother's gas
station after his mysterious disappearance, but all he finds at
home are mysteries and ghosts. The bleak industrial landscape of
now-war-torn eastern Ukraine sets the stage for Voroshilovgrad, the
Soviet era name of the Ukranian city of Luhansk, mixing magical
realism and exhilarating road novel in poetic, powerful, and
expressive prose. Serhiy Zhadan, one of the key figureheads in
contemporary Ukrainian literature and the most famous poet in the
country, has become the voice of Ukraine's "Euro-Maidan" movement.
He lives in Kharkiv, Ukraine.
