The Italian Cultural Institute in Saint Petersburg has organised a reading with writer Gianrico Carofiglio on 27 September. Over the years, the former magistrate-turned-writer has become one of the best loved Italian authors. His books have been translated into 28 different languages. During the event, which will be hosted at the Aleksandrinsky Theatre, excerpts from his new book ‘L’estate fredda’ (‘The Cold Summer’) will be read in Italian and Russian.
