Book of miniatures The future returned to the past was translated into Ukrainian
“Maybutnie povernulos v minule” – so in the Ukrainian language the name of the book of miniatures “The Future Returned to the Past” sounds, which was recently published in the Kiev publishing house “SUMMIT-book”. On the initiative of the director of this publishing house, Ivan Stepurin, the book was translated into Ukrainian in a short time, prepared for publication and published just before the Lviv Book Fair – XXIII Lviv Forum of Exhibitions, where it was presented to the Ukrainian-speaking reader.
Translations were brilliantly performed by the poet Vladimir Kadenko and philologist Olga Ilchuk and “polished” by professional publishing editor Julia Dvoretskaya. As a result, miniatures played with new colors at the same semantic depth of the original. Some of the one-lines acquired, speaking Ukrainian, “vishukanist.” Here are a few examples.
The technique used in the publication of both books is also interesting: they are in the same format, design, and are equally twisted (the only difference is in the color of the binding). A non-standard approach always distinguishes Alexander Korotko, whether it is his multifaceted creativity, his attachments, his private life.
