REVIEW: “Kryvoye Lake” by Oksana Marafioti

Review of Oksana Marafioti, “Kryvoye,” Luna Station Quarterly 55 (2023): Read online. Reviewed by Sara L. Uckelman.

Content note: Suicide.

I’m not sure I liked this story. Ivan is in love with two women, Darya and Marina, and when forced to decide between the two of them, the other one kills herself. Unsurprisingly, there is no happy ending. It all felt just a little bit sordid.
