> In Moscow, in the house where Mikhail Bulgakov lived, there is a
> museum, not so much to honour the writer but the book and it's
> characters. Similarly in Yalta there is a sculptural composition called
> Lady with a lapdog (dedicated to the two characters of Chekhov's well-
> know story). I working on a book about such things in which not the
> author but fictional characters become part of the city space. I'll be
> grateful if someone can lead me to similar stories. The characters need
> not be from fictional narratives only. I would love to know if
> characters from a novel/film/play/tv serial have found a monument
> dedicated to them.
