Description

Our Christmas Book Fair is the perfect opportunity to find thoughtful gifts for the book lover in your life – or to treat yourself. Running from 13–20 December, the fair will feature a curated selection of titles from the Pushkin House bookshop, second-hand gems, and an array of Russian-language books.

The fair will kick off with a special evening on Friday, 13 December featuring celebrated political scientist, author, Pushkin House trustee, and book lover Ekaterina Schulmann overseeing the bookseller stall. A bar serving mulled wine and other refreshments will also be open throughout the evening.

To ensure a comfortable experience, visitors are asked to reserve an allocated time slot for this event. These are available by the hour – 4pm to 5pm, 5pm to 6pm, and so on until doors close at 9pm. Full details and reservations can be made via the button – link on the left.

We look forward to celebrating this festive season with you!
