In his "Metro" trilogy, science-fiction author Dmitry Glukhovsky envisions a post-apocalyptic world in which survivors live in Moscow's subway tunnels, torn by fear and violence. His world-building is extraordinary and has extended Metro 2033 into a gaming universe. A planned movie adaptation - long under way - was scrapped due to his opposition to authoritarian power. At FOFS, he discusses how world-building, a strong creative vision, and collaboration turned his novels into a global phenomenon.

In his globally acclaimed Metro trilogy, science fiction author and journalist Dmitry Glukhovsky creates a bleak vision of a post-apocalyptic world in which the survivors of a nuclear catastrophe seek refuge in the Moscow subway tunnels, torn apart by fear and violence. His worldbuilding is extraordinary and has expanded the book series into a gaming universe. A planned film adaptation - which had long been in the works - was scrapped due to his opposition to Russian authoritarianism. At FOFS, he talks about how worldbuilding, a strong creative vision and collective collaboration have turned his novels into a global phenomenon.
