multicultural writing collective<br />

Ós Pressan. Has published<br />

short stories, poems, and<br />

flesh fiction in various literary<br />

magazines, and currently works<br />

on a novel. Born and raised in<br />

Macedonia, and living in Israel<br />

and Iceland had sparked her<br />

interest in multilingualism and<br />

translingual expression. Hence,<br />

she uses it in her creative<br />

writing as well as in the MA<br />

research at the University of<br />

Iceland.<br />

А ти песна имаш ли,<br />

на поколението да им<br />

ја оставиш?<br />

Со вистини<br />

набреkната,<br />

и со неа да им<br />

покажеш<br />

дека времето е нешто<br />

што не постои?<br />

And what about you?<br />

Have you ever written a<br />

poem<br />

ladened with truths<br />

to pass on to your descendants,<br />

to tell them that time<br />

is something that does<br />

not exist?<br />
