The Borderland and Krzysztof Czyżewski at the SchulzFest’24 in Drohobycz

A poetry reading in the anti-aircraft bunker in Drohobycz

Between 7 and 13 July, Drohobycz hosted the 11th International Bruno Schulz Festival. Krzysztof Czyżewski was one of the festival’s guests.

The festival takes place every two years and it was organized for the first 20 years ago. The special event this year was the series of poetry readings in the anti-aircraft bunkers. The festival gave the audience an opportunity to discuss the work of Bruno Schulz and to visit the real places which are connected to his books and his life.

On behalf of the Borderland, Krzysztof Czyżewski presented the books of Ukrainian poetry which have been released as the joint project of the Borderland and the Dżezwa Publishing House from Lviv.
