Lit Crawl Sebastopol 2025

Olga Zilberbourg's English-language debut LIKE WATER AND OTHER STORIES (WTAW Press) explores “bicultural identity hilariously, poignantly,” according to The Moscow Times. Zilberbourg’s writing has appeared in Narrative Magazine, World Literature Today, Tin House, Electric Literature, Lit Hub, Alaska Quarterly Review, and elsewhere. Born in Leningrad, USSR, in a Russian-speaking Jewish family, she makes her home in San Francisco where she co-facilitates the San Francisco Writers Workshop. She’s a co-founder of Punctured Lines, a feminist blog about literatures from the former Soviet Union.
