Festival des Écrivains du Monde
There is generally never a time I don’t want to be in Paris, but my friend Caro Llewellyn and the former NYPL President Paul LeClerc are making it especially difficult to not be there this year on September 20th – 24th. They’ve organized the first Festival des Écrivains du Monde with over 30 writers speaking in Paris and Lyon – You can see information here.
Salman Rushdie at the Louvre, Edmund White at Maison de la Poésie, Coffee with Catherine Millet in the garden at the Musée Eugène Delacroix, Marie Darrieussecq in conversation with Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, Richard Ford, Michael Ondaatje, Deborah Eisenberg, and much more – I want to go to every event.
