WINNERS 2020

"Her Body and Other Sides" is a Ukrainian-language edition of the collection of short prose by American writer Carmen Maria Machado. A provocative and sophisticated debut that brilliantly breaks the boundaries between magical realism and fantasy, humorous prose and horror. Machado's prose reveals the special innermost aspects of femininity and female maturity. These are emotional and frank stories of women's experiences, centered on the themes of sexuality, objectification, the tyranny of the canons of beauty, misogyny, physical and psychological violence. The main concept of cover design is the imitation of vintage Soviet constructor toy on the cover and allegorical assembly instructions on the front and back flyleafs.
