Event 18, Vitali Vitaliev: “Life as a Literary Device”
Memory is like a scrap book, says the Ukranian–born cultural commentator and journalist Vitali Vitaliev, whose life has been spent exploring the curious and unusual manifestations of human life around the world since he was expelled from the Soviet Union in the early 1990s.

Vitali Vitaliev
“Life as a Literary Device” is the scrap book not only of Vitali Vitaliev’s life but also of how literature binds us all in the modern world. Partly a memoir, partly a novel, partly a survival kit and partly an extended metaphor for writer’s life, Vitaliev looks back on the cuttings that his memory has kept.
