The Borderland at the Warsaw International Bookfair

Victoria Amelina and Maxim Kryvtsov

The Borderland is happy to inform you about the discussion that took place in Warsaw during the 2025 Warsaw International Bookfair.

The discussion concerned the late poets, Victoria Amelina and Maxim Kryvtsov whose books were published by the Borderland in the Facing the War series.

The talk, entitled The Art of Memory, was hosted by Olena Huseinova from Ukrainian Radio. Her interlocutor was Krzysztof Czyżewski.

As it was put by Krzyszyf Czyżewski, the verses of the murdered poets don’t fall silent, they still pierce and awaken us to life.

Krzysztof Czyżewski wrote an essay about Victoria Amelina which is available at the Asian Review here.
