Die Selbstmordrate bei Clowns

Rate this book
Aus dem Ukrainischen und mit einem Glossar von Claudia Dathe. Erzählungen und Bilder aus der Ukraine - fünf Jahre nach einer Revolution, die womöglich gar keine war? Was bleibt von der Orangen Revolution, in einem Land zwischen Finanzkrise, Oligarchen und Polit-Elite mit ihren Machtspielen. Der ukrainische Autor Serhij Zhadan und der polnische Fotograf Jacek Dziaczkowski erzählen von Clowns im Auslandseinsatz, Bergarbeitern im Donbass, von der neuen Mittelschicht in Kiew, den Kiffern von Charkiw und ganz normalen Leuten auf den Straßen Lembergs: poetisch und krass, zärtlich und genau.

Ich vermisse tatsächlich die Infos über die Orangene Revolution sehr. Ich bin leider kein bisschen schlauer geworden. Ich glaube alle Texte (und Geschichten?) handeln von der Ukraine in den 90ern.
