Slovakia Today, English Language Current Affairs Programme from Slovak Radio

Summer Reading with RSI is a series spotlighting Slovak literature in translation. Published in 2026, The Book of Bratislava brings together ten stories by contemporary Slovak writers—five women and five men—representing different generations and literary styles. Today's episode features "The Last Days of Stoka" by Lucia Piussi, translated by Janet Livingstone. Also this summer, as Pohoda—the longest-running multi-genre festival in Slovakia—celebrates its 30th anniversary, we're bringing you a series of laid-back interviews with both international and Slovak artists from the anniversary lineup. Today, meet Muovipussi from Finland.
