Milo Urban (Czech Republic): Seven Churches
Translation: Robert Russell, Peter Owen Publishers, May 2010
Milo Urban (b. 1967) is a doctor of philology, writer and translator. Seven Churches (translation by Mark Comer, Peter Owen Publishers, May 2010) reached the status of a cult book and is now a bestseller in Spain. Written in the spirit of the sensational murder story and combined with a Gothic atmosphere, it traces the steps of a killer through the seven cathedrals of modern day Prague providing a brilliant post-modern interpretation of late-medieval Prague.
British Library, Conference Centre
The British Library is, as national libraries go, relatively young. Its roots lie in the report of the National Libraries Committee issued in 1969. This was followed by a White Paper recommending the setting up of a national library for the UK ('the British Library'). In 1972 The British Library Act was passed by Parliament, bringing the Library into operation with effect from 1 July 1973.
