Autorenporträt
Maik Yohansen (1896-1937) was a prolific Ukrainian modernist writer, poet, playwright, translator, and linguist. One of the founders of VAPLITE and Hart independent collectives of writers, he also was closely involved with the journal Literaturnyi iarmarok (The Literary Fair). In August 1937, he was arrested by the Soviet regime and executed two months later, along with thousands of other Ukrainian intellectuals in what became known as the Executed Renaissance.
