In the Nordic Literary Salon in February, we will focus on a very current topic, which is the war in Ukraine, Russia and their politics. We will talk about the book Same River, Twice: Putin’s War on Women by the award winning Finnish author, Sofi Oksanen with translator from Finnish and Swedish, Petr Kujal. Moderated by Michal Švec.
You can watch the live stream on Thursday 20. February 2025 from 20:00 on the Scandinavian House Facebook page. The recording will later be made available on our YouTube Channel.
In Czech.
