This fall, we are publishing the English translation of “My Prison Trip” by Sasha Skochilenko — a Russian artist and musician sentenced to seven years in prison for leaving five anti-war price tags at a St. Petersburg supermarket in 2022, and released in the landmark prisoner exchange of August 2024. Translated into English by Jessica Kaner.

How did Akhmatova’s «Requiem» come to be published in Munich in 1963 — without the author’s knowledge, from burned scraps of paper, through diplomatic pouch, and smuggled copies?

This fall, we plan to publish Akhmatova’s ‘Requiem’: A View from Abroad — a bilingual Russian-English edition that tells the story of the first publication and reception of «Requiem» abroad through letters, diaries, reviews, and memoirs. The book will also include a new English translation of Akhmatova’s ’Requiem’!

Help us bring this title to life — your donations will help us cover the costs of translation, editing, designing, and printing.

Meet Arina, one of 16 students we supported last year through our Manuscripts Don’t Burn charity book auction and fundraising campaign. Today, we are continuing our effort to support displaced students who have since joined our team.

Sneak preview: previously unpublished letters by Viktor Shklovsky to Elsa Triolet! Welcome to the series of posts where we share excerpts from books we plan to publish this Fall. You can support us in bringing these titles to life — by helping us cover the costs of editing, translating, designing, and promoting these titles.

In the first preview — archival love letters by Viktor Shklovsky to Elsa Triolet, written between 1922 and 1970, during his exile in Berlin, and later from Moscow, spanning nearly fifty years. Previously unpublished, these letters later inspired Shklovsky’s celebrated novel “Zoo, or Letters Not about Love” (1923), and include his drawings.

More letters and expanded previews — in our Newsletter: https://mailchi.mp/bcfffc132e61/press-release-manuscripts-dont-burn-fundraising-campaign-and-charity-book-auction-to-support-students-affected-by-war-or-persecution-6752801
