I’m ending the year with Nothing New in the East.
Written with the hope that the war in Ukraine will end —
so Eastern Europe can stop holding its breath
and start listening to its own unfinished questions again.

The last book of this year is not about war.
It’s about everything that had to wait because of it.
I hope next year the East can turn its attention back to itself — to repair, to breathe, to decide what comes next.

Courage This piece of writing placed second in the 2024 PEN America Prison Writing Awards. Courage I don't remember the Mexican kid's name anymore but I do remember his age which was 18. He looked young, younger than 18 although he carried himself like a man much older. Let me clarify, he was young and stupid and full of bad decisions but his stupidity was that of the young and his bad decisions were of that as well.

Robert Hiraeth's PEN Award-winning prison writing explores what it costs to survive institutional violence - and what it costs everyone around you.
