Giuliano da Empoli: The Wizard of the Kremlin

Supported by the Institut français du Royaume-Uni. Translated into thirty languages across the world, Giuliano da Empoli’s The Wizard of the Kremlin is a stunning work of political fiction that reads like a thriller. Charting the rise to power of Putin’s notorious spin doctor, Surkov, in brilliant, nightmarish fashion, it truly propels the reader into the dark and complex world of Russian politics. Giuliano da Empoli will be in conversation with Dr James Womack (Cambridge University) at Daunt Books Marylebone.
