Agenda de l'ENS de Lyon

Unwritten Conversations: Stories in the Making is a joint initiative between the University of Lisbon, the École normale supérieure de Lyon and the University of Madeira, organised by Elena Bollinger, Margarida Martins and Vanessa Guignery. We invite writers, readers, and book lovers to engage in conversation about the art of writing and storytelling. This series aims to delve into the captivating world of story-making, offering a unique opportunity to hear from writers about their creative process. Each session will feature a talk between a writer and a moderator, either in person or virtually, creating a welcoming atmosphere for questions, reflections, and ideas to motivate aspiring writers and students of creative writing or languages and literature in the audience.
