We Will Wake Up Different
Conversations With Contemporary Belarusian Writers About the Past, Present and Future of Belarus
by Iia Kiva
Description
The collection includes ten interviews with some of today's most famous Belarusian writers: Tatyana Nyadbay, Anna Seviarynets, Alhierd Baharevich, Mariya Martysevich, Dmitry Strotsev, Yulia Tsimafeeva, Uladz Lyankevich, Andrei Khadanovich, Valzhyna Mort, and Uladzimer Arlov. A prominent topic throughout the interviews is the right of Belarusians to live in a free and democratic society: protests against the Lukashenko regime have been going on in Belarus since August 2020. However, the writers not only discuss the critical state of Belarus today but also the country's history, its cultural longevity, unique characteristics, and traditions.
