Gintaras Patackas. Mažoji Dieviškoji Co (bilingua)

Unlike Gintarzs Patackas's previous bilingual poem, this new poem was prepared for publication in Lithuania and was practically completed simultaneously, almost racing against the Russian translation. Its ironic absurdism, dark humor, stream-of-consciousness, mixture of styles, and centonic approach connect this book to the tradition of Russian modernism and postmodernism. Its rigid iambic form, provocatively uncharacteristic of contemporary Western poetry, makes it particularly appealing to both Russian-speaking translators and readers.
