[Robert Chandler]

Dear Jacob Edmond,

I live in the UK and would like to order 2 copies.  What will that cost?

Congratulations on what looks like something very interesting indeed!

Yours,

Robert Chandler

> Landfall 213: the 'Russia' issue
> 
> A Russian anthology of New Zealand poetry, Land of Seas, was published in
> Moscow in 2005. Now New Zealand is reciprocating with a special issue of
> Landfall that includes contemporary Russian writing and art.
> 
> Edited by Jacob Edmond, Gregory O'Brien, Evgeny Pavlov and Ian Wedde, the
> 'Russia' issue features a selection of previously untranslated works by
> contemporary Russian poets: Arkadii Dragomoshchenko, Anna Glazova, Dmitry
> Golynko, Alexei Parshchikov, Olga Sedakova, Alexandr Skidan, Viktor Sosnora.
> Many of these translations have been created by leading New Zealand poets
> working in collaboration with Edmond and Pavlov. The issue also features a
> wide range of writing on contemporary Russian literary and art cultures,
> economies and diasporas.
> 
> As well as bringing Russian literature and art to New Zealand readers, the
> issue surveys the ways in which New Zealand writers have engaged-as
> travellers, readers and scholars-with Russia and its people.
> 
> Landfall 213 also includes an account by the curator Marcus Williams of the
> Blue Noses, whose comic video satires were a highlight of the 2005 Venice
> Biennale and whose work is substantially represented here.
