Salon with a View: Rumena Bužarovska

Literary evening

Cankarjev dom Literature and Humanities Salon with a View: Rumena Bužarovska

Rumena Bužarovska is a fiction writer from North Macedonia. An author of four volumes of short stories, her best-known work is the funny and provocative collection My Husband (Moj mož, Modri-jan, 2017), which has been translated into 14 languages, most notably by the prestigious German and French publishing houses Suhrkamp and Gallimard, respectively. These powerful stories about the strain of heterosexual relationships in patriarchal society have been adapted into six European stage productions, and will most likely inspire further adaptations in other genres. Bužarovska is also a literary translator from English and Assistant Professor of American Literature at the State Univer-sity in Skopje.

The event will be held in English with translation into Slovenian.
