Elif Batuman and Gary Shteyngart at 92Y

An evening with Paris Review contributor and New Yorker staff writer Elif Batuman and writer Gary Shteyngart.

Batuman’s first book is The Possessed: Adventures With Russian Books and the People Who Read Them. Her writing “dances between autobiography, travel-writing and literary criticism with dazzling flair and originality,” wrote the Los Angeles Times. Gary Shteyngart’s new memoir is Little Failure. “With roots deep in the heart of Russian literature, Shteyngart has become an indispensable and important American writer,” wrote Jay McInerney.
