Event News: Boris Akunin in London (February 2013)

From an email from the London Review Bookshop:

Russian crime writer Boris Akunin will be in conversation with James Meek about how his writing reflects and interacts with literary traditions, as well as Russian culture, history and politics.

A philologist, critic, essayist, and translator of Japanese, Boris Akunin published his first detective stories in 1998 and has already become one of the most widely read authors in Russia. His Erast Fandorin books, full of literary games and allusions, are translated into English by Andrew Bromfield.

The event is on Friday 1 February at 7.00 pm and tickets are £10, bookable here.
