Ilya Kaminsky, professor in the School of Literature, Media, and Communication, was featured in the article, 'Poem: We Lived Happily During the War', posted on March 2, 2022 in The New York Times Magazine.
An excerpt:
It’s difficult to pluck out just one poem from Ilya Kaminsky’s book “Deaf Republic,” because the volume operates best as an occasion versus a moment. This plain-spoken simple poem summarizes a main theme in the work — that of complicity during wartime.
