After the Debut. Meeting with Michał Cichy
What do debut authors write about? What kind of language do they use to try to capture reality? What position in the literary world do they try to take? Between Monday and Friday, join us for meetings with authors nominated for the first Conrad Award. The subject of discussion will be the state of contemporary Polish literature. During the festival week, we will present 5 of the most important Polish literary debuts of 2014. On Sunday, we will learn the name of this year’s winner of the literary award.
