His latest book Birds Without Wings is said, by those who have read it, to be even better than Capt Corelli. And now Mr de Berniéres himself is coming to Malta.

Between March 21 and 22 he will be giving two book readings and conducting three book-signings here. His readings will be at the St James Centre For Creativity and the University of Malta, while he will be signing copies of his books also at Agenda bookshops on the same days.

His visit has been made possible via an invitation from The British Council, the Faculty of Arts at the University of Malta and Miller Distributors.

Details of precise times will appear in the press nearer to the dates.
