Andrukhovych and Bu-Ba-Bu in NYC

[Vitaly A. Chernetsky]

Dear all,

Those of you in the greater New York area unable to make it to the earlier
announced reading by Yuri Andrukhovych at the Shevchenko Scientific
Society are welcome to attend his reading at Columbia University on
Thursday, November 12, at 6 p.m. in Room 1219, International Affairs
Building (118th St. & Amsterdam Avenue). While the NTSh event will be in
Ukrainian only, the one at Columbia will be in both Ukrainian and English.
In any case, please come to at least one reading by him: Andrukhovych is
arguably the most important writer active in Ukraine today, and this is
his first visit to North America.

Sincerely,
Vitaly Chernetsky

P.S. More information about Andrukhovych can be found at the website of
the Canadian Institute of Ukrainian Studies (www.utoronto.ca/cius/, if I'm
not mistaken); they have just published an English translation of
Andrukhovych's first novel, _Recreations_ (it originally apperaed in
Ukrainian in 1992).
