Poetry in the Garden With Charlie. Poetry in Translation

  • America House Kyiv 6 Mykoly Pymonenka Street Kyiv, 02000 Ukraine (map)

For our 8th session of Poetry in the Garden, we'll be looking at poetry in translation. For this special session, we'll be reading a poem by Serhiy Zhadan, Perhaps It's Time To Start Now (Може саме тепер і варто почати). In the comfort of our garden space, we'll explore Zhadan's poetry in the original Ukrainian as well as its English translation, and discuss what's lost (and what's not) in translation. See you in the garden!

Attendance and participation are free. You just need to let us know if you’re coming by registering for the event in advance. We’ll save you a spot and keep you posted about any changes.
