Years ago, we could only read russian books from French or English. So, I discovered this incredible good Boris Akunin who writes about a 19 century detective named Fandórin. How many books did he already write with Fandórin? We have four in Portuguese, included '"Winter Queen". Others new russian writers published in Portuguese are Victor Pelevin and Alexandra Marínina. Are they very popular in Russia?

I'll be waiting for next seven romances. As Boris Akunin became popular also in Brazil, I suppose all them will be translated into Portuguese. Thanks a have a nice week.
