Second Ulysses Shelter e-anthology launched
We are pleased to launch an e-anthology presenting the participants in the second year of Ulysses Shelter third cycle 2022-2025. Ulysses Shelter is a project coordinated by Sandorf (Croatia) in partnership with organisations in the Czech Republic, Greece, Malta, Serbia, Slovenia, Mallorca (Spain) and Wales (UK). Read more about the project here and here.
Like the first one, the second anthology contains a mix of existing work and texts – essays, poetry and prose – written during or after the residencies, and it gives us a sense of the variety of topics and concerns shared by emerging authors across Europe. What is remarkable about this, and the forthcoming third collection, is the number of writers who are capable of translating their own work into English. There is no doubt that this contemporary European lingua franca opens the doors to a wider readership without diminishing the importance of Europe’s multilingualism, and makes it possible for us to have conversations across the vast and varied European cultural space.
The fifteen authors included in the anthology are Virginia Monteforte, Kristina Nesvedová, Natassa Sideri, Ivan Antić, Jacobo Bergareche, Efstathia Paliotzika, Aljaž Primožič, Nežka Struc, Kaja Teržan, Laura Torres Bauzà, Ryan Falzon, Megan Angharad Hunter, Dora Šustić, Jelena Žugić and Lana Pukanić.
