Letters of the Alphabet Go to War

The latest installment in the Sarabande Quarternote Chapbook Series.In this chapbook, Katie Farris and Ilya Kaminsky offer a translation of Lesyk Panasiuk’s remarkable account of living in Bucha, Ukraine, during the apex of war and brutality at the hands of the Russian military. The result is a tremendous work that The Guardian describes as embodying "the idea of the rupture of language through the physical collapse of signs and lettering on buildings hit by missiles." This slim book bears great weight.
