Moscow – A new exhibition in the Moscow Metro has opened to mark the 155th anniversary of Alexander Kuprin.
At each display of the exhibition, passengers can find lists of Kuprin’s books—over 30 works recommended for reading.
The exhibition can be seen until September 16 in the transfer passage between the Savëlovskaya stations on the Line 9 and the Big Circle Line.
This exhibition was previously showcased on June 4 at the 11th Red Square Book Festival.
This September, it will open in Balaklava as part of the Kuprin Readings.
After that, the exhibition will travel to Paris for the “Russian Literature” book fair.
“Since the beginning of the year, 39 themed exhibitions have already been held in the metro and on the Moscow Central Circle (MCC),” said Maksim Liksutov, Deputy Mayor of Moscow, responsible for the city’s transport and infrastructure sectors.
“Passengers can visit them and learn something new without even stepping outside.
“Following the directive of Moscow Mayor Sergei Sobyanin, we are making trips on public transport not only comfortable and safe but also interesting.”
