About this listen

 Soviet born journalist Masha Gessen and poet Li-Young Lee on this archive edition of Fresh Air. Masha Gessen edited a collection of post-Soviet fiction by women, Half a Revolution: Contemporary Fiction by Russian Women. Gessen says that most of the writers in the collection belong to the "mute generation" that came of age under Brezhnev. Gessen immigrated to the U.S. in 1981, when she was fourteen to be with her parents. She's been an editor, primarily in gay and lesbian press, and was international editor at The Advocate. Poet Li-Young Lee has written two volumes of poetry, Rose, and The City in Which I Love You. Lee has won many awards for his work, including the Guggenheim Memorial Foundation Fellowship. He also wrote a memoir about his family's refugee experience in America, The Winged Seed. One reviewer writes of the memoir, "a powerful attempt to conquer the past and - with compassion - to sign a truce with it."
