    • His real name is Grigory Chkhartishvili. The son of a Georgian father, Shalva Chkhartishvili, and a Jewish mother, Berta Brazinskaya, Boris Akunin came to Russia at the age of one.
    • There is more to his pseudonym than meets the eye. Chkhartishvili chose the moniker B. Akunin in 1998 – adding "Boris" in the 2000s after his books had already become bestsellers.
    • He is a keen experimenter. When he had gained a stable reputation and financial success, Akunin decided to experiment. In 2007-2011, he decided to move away from the format that had brought him so much acclaim, publishing two series of novels, one purely historical and one sentimental, under the pen names Anatoly Brusnikin and Anna Borisova.
    • He has now added "historian" to his resume. Akunin is currently working on The History of the Russian State, a multi-volume work that seeks to understand why Russia has remained so stable in the face of so many revolts and revolutions.
