We are delighted to invite you to the next meeting of our book club "Coffee with Malanchuk"!
This time we'll be discussing the novel "KaccaHApa kypntb IIaIIipocn" ("Cassandra Smokes Cigarettes") together with its author, Anna Bezpala, who will join us at the House to talk about historical memory, anxiety, women's voices, and how the past insistently echoes our present. The talk will be held in Ukrainian as the book is yet to be translated into English. However, Anna will be happy to accommodate the discussion with anyone who speaks English.
"Cassandra Smokes Cigarettes" is an atmospheric historical novel set in Kyiv in January 1918 - a city on the edge of change and catastrophe. At the center of the story is Natalia, a young woman trying to hold on to herself in a city torn between revolution, war, and chaos. Her voice intertwines with the myth of Cassandra - a woman doomed to see what others refuse to acknowledge.
Gradually, the past becomes a mirror of today, and the novel poses questions we can't easily ignore:- What happens when history repeats itself?- And what do we do with a truth we'd rather turn away from?
Anna Bezpala is a writer, cultural diplomat, Ukraine House's former intern, and the founder of our book club "Coffee with Malanchuk."

We look forward to your thoughts, questions, and a lively discussion!
