Worldwide reading in memoriam of Anna Politkovskaya

Status: April, 24th 2007

Participants

The following organisations are supporting the event
Elfriede Jelinek handed us a tape with her reading out the first of the chosen chapters "Machkety. A concentration camp with a commercial streak" which will be broadcasted in several radio stations.

We now have the reading texts in the following languages: Russian (original), German, English, Spanish, French, Polish and Catalan. Translations into Italian, Czech, Georgian and Arabian are on their way.

Special thanks in this respect to the publishing houses that gave us the permission for the free public reading of the texts of Anna Politkovskaya on the "Anniversary of the Political Lie" in the respective languages.
Those are Zakharov Publishers (Russia - the publishing house gave the permission to read and translate the texts in any other language to which it hasn't been translated yet), DuMont (Germany), Chicago University Press (USA), Ordfront (Sweden), Like (Finland).

There will be broadcastings in the following radio stations:

The author Patricia de Souza writes about Anna Politkovskaya in her blog www.palincestos.blogspot.com
