On Tuesdays and Thursdays during the first two weeks of July, discover European literature with summer readings in the Citizens' Garden in Brussels. Immerse yourself in thought-provoking stories in a serene green space on your lunchbreak. During the first week, attend literary readings with Irish and Danish authors; discover Paul Lynch’s 2023 Booker Prize winning novel “Prophet Song.” Danish author Jesper Brygger will read from his 2023 novel “Pueri.” During week two, you can listen to Ukrainian author Anna Shevchenko’s collection of real life stories “Around the War in 20 stories.” For the final reading, German author Emma Braslavsky will read extracts from her 2019 novel “The night was pale, the lights were twinkling” and 2019 short story “I’m your Man.” The literary readings will begin at 12:30. After a short introduction by the moderator, authors will give a 20-30 minute reading from their work. After each reading, you have the unique opportunity to debate with the author about her/his work and the topics she/he touches upon in an interactive Q&A session. The readings will take place in the mother tongue of the book, with text translations provided in English. Discussion between the moderator and the author will take place in English.
