October 8, 2009 — On October 1 Argo Publishing launched a year-long celebration of its Anglo-American literature series / AAA with a kick-off event at Academia Bookstore in Prague. The US Embassy has been a proud, long standing supporter of Argo, who over the past 15 years of this series, managed by chief editor Eva Slámová, has translated 100 important works of contemporary Anglo-American literature into Czech.
This year, Argo and the U.S. Embassy will broaden the interest and knowledge of contemporary Anglo-American literature, from Charles Bukowski and Raymond Carver to Cormac McCarthy and Jhumpa Lahiri, by sponsoring speaking tours by prominent American authors as part of the Prague Book Fair in May 2010 and readings of American novels throughout the year.
