Modern Animal by Yevgenia Belorusets was published in 2021 by ISOLARII. Belorusets connects a series of different characters and ideas, making use of a Soviet-style lecture form. While writing the novel, Belorusets interviewed people along the Donbas region, approaching the Russian-Ukrainian conflict through stories about animals.[1] ISOLARII co-founder Sebastian Clark described the work “as a great refutation of autofiction.”[2] The book was published with a foreword by filmmaker Peter Greenaway.[3] Writing for magCulture, Danielle Mustarde notes how over the course of the novel the "once-structured Modern Animal evolves into a dream-like mix of interview, folklore and fiction."[4]
