For decades, Ukrainian literature abroad remained overshadowed by the Russian imperial discourse. Today the number of translations of Ukrainian works is steadily growing, giving international readers the opportunity to free themselves from narratives imposed by Russia and to “decolonize” their bookshelves.

Chytomo, Ukrainian independent media about publishing and contemporary literature jointly with Craft Magazine, online journal with inspiring conversations about art, creativity, craftsmanship, and life, presents the project “Chapter Ukraine” – digital platform showcasing Ukrainian books in translation, providing full book data and tools to search, categorize, create, and share curated lists of titles with bookstores and libraries.

Participants: Oksana Hmelyovska (chief editor of Chytomo), Kateryna Kazimirova (founding editor of Craft Magazine), Claudia Dathe (translator, curator)

Moderator: Ganna Gnedkova (translator, literary critic)
