In this video lecture you will find some information on the books by Yuri Andrukhovych, Oksana Zabuzhko, Andrey Kurkov, and Serhiy Zhadan — those Ukrainian authors who are already popular abroad. Bohdana Neborak, the journalist, and manager of cultural projects talks about more than a dozen of contemporary and modernist Ukrainian authors who have already been translated into one or several foreign languages and have become popular abroad.
