Kilometer 101 is the second full-length collection to appear in English by Russian writer Maxim Osipov.[1] The book was published by New York Review Books Classics on October 11, 2022, after the beginning of the War in Ukraine.[2][3] The book is split into two parts: "Luxemburg: Stories", realistic fictional short stories about life in Tarusa, Russia, and "Kilometer 101: Essays", autobiographical recounts of Osipov's experiences as a cardiologist and citizen in Tarusa.[4][5] The essays are wide-ranging, exploring such themes as life as an outsider in provincial Russia, life abroad in America for foreigners, the challenge of maintaining Russian identity/history, and the politics of emigration.[6][1][3] The collection was edited by Boris Dralyuk; it was translated from Russian by Dralyuk, Alex Fleming, and Nicolas Pasternak Slater.[1]
