The Leipzig Book Fair is a known meeting place for writers from eastern Europe. This year the fair is attracting even more interest. What has changed in the twenty years since the fall of communism? Is the east the new west? How do these authors write now,and what are they writing about? ARTS.21 hasn't waited for their books to reach Leipzig. Instead,we've travelled by train through eastern Europe to visit writers in Ukraine,the Czech Republic and Slovakia.
