FSG hosts a reading series at the Russian Samovar in New York, most recently with Lydia Davis and David Means. Produced by two of our assistant editors, Chantal Clarke and Mark Krotov, the readings occur at irregular intervals throughout the year. Homemade vodka is often consumed. Here, writer and translator Lydia Davis reads new work, including a short piece that, due to its own logic, can never be completed.
