Where I Am Not is the memoir of Halina Voitsik — a Belarusian and Lithuanian Germanist, writer, translator, and long-time activist of the Belarusian community in Vilnius.
Rather than focusing on herself, Voitsik writes about the people, events, and cultural life that shaped her world.
The book offers vivid portraits of Belarusians of Vilnius and a personal testimony of the twentieth century, preserving stories, memories, and voices that might otherwise have been lost. Written with clarity and restraint, these memoirs are both a record of an individual life and an important document of Belarusian cultural history.
