    Summary

    Ilya Rozanov on the Art of Fiction: “I write because I need to write, I read because I need to read, I eat because I need to eat, and so on. I imagine it’s the same for everyone who feels compelled to put words on a page."

    twenty or so years after "the texture of memory," ilya sits down for a chat with michaela kerrigan about life, writing, and love.

    Summary

    When you’re going up in flames, sometimes other people can smell the smoke. On the flip side, at least: when you’re on fire, sometimes other people can feel the warmth.

    Or, scenes from Home Economics, told from the perspective of everyone else.

    Summary

    The Swiss National League doesn’t care about the legendary Hollander-Rozanov rivalry. When the MLH can’t negotiate with the Hockey Players’ Union in time to prevent a hockey lockout at the start of the 2015 season, the Zürich Lions jump at the chance to sign both Shane and Ilya to short-term contracts. For four months in Switzerland, they share a team, a line, a house, and a bed. 

    Then the lockout ends in January, and it’s time to go back. Back to different countries, cities, lives. Beds.

    Reentry is harder than expected.
