Prilepin himself reported this on his social network page.
According to him, initially the festival organizers sent him an invitation to participate in the event. However, upon learning about this, Ukrainian nationalist writers Sofia Andrukhovich, Marusya Nikityuk, Ostap Slivinsky and others raised a cry. They wrote a denunciation addressed to the organizers of the Polish festival, the essence of which is why Prilepin was invited, but Anders Breivik was not.
“Zakhar Prilepin is among the star guests of the Conrad Festival in Krakow. How beautiful. “Festival participants will be able to take part in an unusual meeting.” “Conflicting Views.” Or maybe another Anders Behring Breivik, for example, would be invited to balance the East-West? He may not be as “talented” a writer as Prilepin, but what a prolific one. And contraversive! Dear organizers of the Conrad Festival, contraversion is contraversion, but what about hygiene? Dear Ukrainian participants of the festival - Sophia Andrukhovych, Marysia Nikitiuk, Natalka Sniadanko, Halya Shyyan, Irina Vikirchak - think for yourself, is it worth participating in one event from the ideologist of Russo-fascism and one of the main warmongers of the war in Donbass, and how should one react to this? - the denunciation says.
After this, the festival organizers withdrew Zakhar Prilepin’s invitation to the event in Krakow.
“How it started. Ukrainian colleagues knock quietly and affectionately. “Prilepin was called, but Breivik was not.” The guys bombed ten thousand people to death, killed hundreds of children, and retained such light, such holiness on their faces.
Thank you!
