Paris book fair, Russian authors

[Vitaly Chernetsky]

Dear Colleagues,

"Andrei Gelasimov" is not an error, but the correct name of this writer (a
fairly important contemporary Russian author, BTW). OCLS's WorldCat lists 6
novels by him in the original Russian in US libraries.

This list of writers at the Paris event is very comprehensive indeed, and it is
all the more impressive that they are listed with the names of respective
French publishers bringing out their works. I wish English-language publishers
were as attentive to contemporary Russian (or any other Slavic) literature.

Sincerely,
Vitaly Chernetsky
