Leading literary outlets embraced Russian Literature Week with thoughtful coverage. Book Riot published “5 Short Classics to Read During Russian Literature Week,” making the programming approachable for general readers. Lit Hub ran a piece on “Pushkin, Tolstoy, and Vladislav Felistianovich Khodesevich,” while January Magazine featured “To Russia With Literature.” These placements reached dedicated book lovers and helped establish the festival within literary circles.
PKPR represented Read Russia’s Russian Literature Week in 2017, securing media coverage for the literary festival during a time of US-Russia tensions. Our work led to features in CBS New York, Lit Hub, and Book Riot, along with coverage in amNewYork’s print edition and The Culture Trip.
The coverage helped raise visibility for Russian literature and Read Russia’s programming across New York’s literary venues, demonstrating how targeted media relations can support cultural events that bridge international understanding through books.
