I'm not sure if this is where I am supposed to post links, but there is my review of the brilliant 'The Melancholy of Resistance' by László Krasznahorkai:

Hi, I'd like to join The Eastern European Reading Challenge 2012. Never one to dabble, I'm going to shoot for Scholar level with 12 titles or more. My plans at the moment are to read everything I can get my hands on by László Krasznahorkai, Sandor Marai's 'Embers', Peter Nádas's 'Parallel Stories', Imre Kertesz's 'Fiasco', Andrzej Stasiuk's 'Dukla', some Sigizmund Krzhizhanovsky, Péter Esterházy's 'The Book of Hrabal', Alexander Herzen's 'My Past and Thoughts: Memoirs Volume 1: Memoirs v. 1', some Dezso Kosztolanyi and Bohumil Hrabal.

Hey, it's the first time I'm doing this challenge, and it sounds amazing to me. I'm romanian, so I'm familiar with most books in the eastern region. And also, I'm gonna go with 12 titles.

Thanks a lot for the challenge :)

I'm in! It's perfect! There is at least a dozen of Eastern European books that immediately popped into my head while reading about this challenge and I'm looking forward to spotlighting them on my blog :) Thanks!

I'll make a post about the challenge today!

Can I make a suggestion for the reading list?
I've recently published a memoir, an account of my father's life:
http://www.amazon.com/Sliding-Snow-Stone-Andy-Szpuk/dp/1466305681/ref=tmm_pap_title_0?ie=UTF8&qid=1325535486&sr=1-1

So, as a ethnic Ukrainian born in Britain, I hope I qualify, and of course I'd love to get my book read.

Here's a link to my writer blog, with a brief account of how I came to write the book:
