Illustration
  • Where: Václav Havel Library, Ostrovní 13, Prague 110 00
  • When: November 27, 2014, 19:00 – 21:00

An evening dedicated to the poet, translator and defender of human rights Natalya Gorbanevskaya.

At 17:00 Bishop Václav Malý will perform a requiem mass for Natalya at the Church of St. Vojtěch in the New Town. She will later be remembered in readings of her poetry, lyrics reminiscent of ancient Russian mysticism of resurrection through suffering.  A debate on the subject of the texts and their Czech translation will follow.
