European Voices: A Reading & Conversation with Christos Ikonomou and Karen Emmerich
2016-04-19 18:00 - 19:30 (America/New_York) | Boston University Castle, 225 Bay State Road, Boston, MA, 02215, United States
Join us for a reading and conversation with Greek writer Christos Ikonomou and translator Karen Emmerich. Ikonomou will read from and discuss his short story collection, Something Will Happen, You’ll See (Polis Editions, 2010)—a wrenching yet optimistic elegy to Greece’s working classes. The collection was the most reviewed Greek book of 2010 and the recipient of the prestigious Best Short-Story Collection State Award. It has been translated into six languages and is being published in the U.S by Archipelago in March, 2016.
Christos Ikonomou was born in Athens in 1970. He has published two earlier collections of short stories, The Woman on the Rails (2003) and Something Will Happen, You’ll See (2010). Described by Italy’s La Repubblica as “the Greek Faulkner,” Ikonomou writes with profound sensibility, deep humanism and astute foresight about the human condition using the Greek economic crisis as a backdrop.
Karen Emmerich’s translations from the Greek include books by Margarita Karapanou, Amanda Michalopoulou, Sophia Nikolaidou, Ersi Sotiropoulos, and Vassilis Vassilikos. Her translation of Miltos Sachtouris for Archipelago was nominated for a National Book Critics Circle Award in Poetry and her translation of Yannis Ritsos’s Diaries of Exile with Edmund Keeley won the 2014 PEN Literary Award. She teaches at Princeton University.
Free and open to the public. Reception and book-signing to follow.

2016-04-25 19:30 - 21:00 | Studio Cinema, 376 Trapelo Road, Belmont, MA, 02478, United States
Greek New Wave director Tsangari sets this satirical film on a luxury yacht in the middle of the Aegean Sea, where six diverse men are on a fishing vacation. Overcome by farcical machismo after their first catch, the men devise an unusual game to determine who is the most masculine. The winner of this curious series of contests will wear the victorious signet ring, the “chevalier.” Official selection at the Toronto International Film Festival. Contains several brief scenes of frontal nudity.
Speaker: Vassiliki Rapti, Preceptor in Modern Greek at Harvard University, whose publications and research interests center upon Modern Greek literature, avant-garde theatre and performance, especially surrealist drama, and the poetics of play and games.
