Ismail Kadare, winner of the 2020 Neustadt International Prize for Literature, headlines the Winter 2021 issue of World Literature Today with a cover feature devoted to his life and work. Also inside, a special section on contemporary Hebrew literature gathers eleven writers from Israel and beyond. Other highlights include a powerful story by Mieko Kawakami, Argentine flash fiction, creative nonfiction by Alina Stefanescu, and a new “Linguistic R/Evolutions” column. As always, additional essays, poetry, interviews, dozens of timely book reviews, and recommended booklists make the latest issue of WLT, like every issue, your passport to great reading.
