Festival LEA 2016. Ibero-American Literature in Athens

LEA, the Ibero-American literature in Athens festival, is the first and only literature and culture festival in Athens and Thessaloniki to provide a meeting point between Ibero-America and Greece and space for acknowledging and practicing the language and culture through literature, art, music, films and plays. The various activities in the three languages provide the audience with enjoyable first-hand experience of these countries’ rich cultural and literary offering.

AC/E is collaborating in this year’s edition by supporting the activity entitled ‘El que cuenta es y narra’, a session consisting of four units designed to make known the identity of the writer in his or her literature. The participating authors are Andrés Neuman, who will examine language as a homeland; Javier Marías on noir fiction as the reflection of a society; Carmen Camacho on poetry as a voice for women; and Pep Bruno, who analyses how to find ourselves in stories. Well-known Greek writers such as Petros Markaris and Titos Patrikios and journalists specialising in literature, among them Kourmounlis and Patakis, will also take part in the activity.
