This week we are co-presenting -- with Event Horizon Magazine and translator Isaac Wheeler -- the English-language debut of author Olga Onoyko. We're devoting this episode to Olga's surreal, dream-like short story, "The House Behind The Vacant Lot." Lily interviews the author and Isaac reads his translation of her story.
Olga Onoyko is a 33 year old, Moscow-based musicologist by training, who works in IT. She is the author of multiple published novels and short stories. In 2007 she received the Debut award in the Fantasy genre for her novel "Surgical Intervention" (Хирургическое вмешательство), and in 2009 an encouragement award from the European Science Fiction Society.
Isaac's translation of "The House Behind The Vacant Lot", written in 2003 and published in Russian in 2007, will appear in Issue 3 of literary and graphic arts periodical Event Horizon on March 21.
