January 26 In Paris, within the walls of the Polish Academy of Sciences, Alexander Korotko was awarded the title of Academician of the European Academy of Sciences, Arts and Literature, and also became a laureate of the Great Literary Prize “The Love of Freedom” of this Academy. This event happened thanks to the publication in the Paris publishing house “L’Harmattan” of a book of poems “The Red Frog” translated into French by Dmitry Chistyak and Nicole Laurent-Katrice. A small book was of great interest to poetry lovers, French poet colleagues, and publishers, which served as the basis for awarding such a high award for literary work. The award was presented to Alexander Korotko by the Secretary General of the European Academy Dr. Nicole Lemer d’Agadio.
