Dear Friends:
We are grateful to the New York Times for drawing attention
to the St.-Petersburg
literary museums in its recent article "The Lairs of
Russian Literary Lions"
As far as our museum is concerned -- some corrections
are needed.
Leaving aside a couple of biographical inaccuracies
let me assure all our
future visitors that the museum does have
information sheets in both
languages and English-language tours are
available if booked one day in
advance. All the three people
working here speak
English.
Also, for those who read Russian it might be interesting
to look up my
article on the museum's history and present situation in the
St.Petersburg weekly
