Reviewed Volodymyr Rafeyenko's phenomenal novel Mondegreen for @lareviewofbooks.

If you love Ukraine, ghost stories, cheeky jabs at Pushkin and Gogol, and whimsical prose, this book is 10/10. @HURI_Harvard

A lion’s death shocked the world, but what of the lives lost in Russia’s 2014 invasion of the Ukraine?

So grateful to have my review of Olena Stiazhkina's "Cecil the Lion Had to Die" published in @asymptotejrnl.

As a result of Russia’s destruction of the Nova Kakhovka dam, mines, toxic debris, and the bodies of animals are washing ashore in Odesa. Ukraine will win this war and recover. And then the Black Sea will bring back its usual offerings — the ones Babel describes in “The King.”

@TheStanislawski Can you share a link to the original source if you have it?

Mustread. "No one would call an artist from India “British” or an artist from Peru “Spanish,” so why do museums continue to label Ukrainian artists as “Russian”?"

Eric Dier looks like he could play Crabbe or Goyle in a Harry Potter remake.

Excellent point, and a strong fiery piece by @ACEurasia's @AKaratnycky.
