Slata Roschal © Ksenia Laevskaia
Slata Roschal is not only an award-winning author, widely acclaimed in literary criticism, but also an accomplished critic, translator from Russian, and editor. Her debut novel “153 Forms of Non-Existence”, which explores themes of identity, migration, marginality, femininity, and the nature of being, was nominated for the German Book Prize in 2022.
“Her particular strength as a poet lies in maintaining—again and again, almost playfully—an elegant balance between merciless, laconic expression and poetic imagination.” (Excerpted from a jury’s statement)
