Roundtable: The Heartbeat of African Literature
Details
📣ℹ️📚🌳📖🔤🪘 Thanks to literature, we come closer to the political, social, and cultural reality of writers, as well as of the places portrayed in their works. This year, following that path, we take the pulse of African literature 📚📖 through its authors, books, and stories. For this reason, we invite you to the round table “The Beat of African Literature”, which will take place as part of our #feriadellibrotelde2026 on Saturday, April 18 🗓️ at 7:00 p.m. ⏰ in the Saulo Torón Tent. It will be coordinated by journalist #pepenaranjo and will feature contributions from Ebbaba H., #agnesagboton, Chema N’Bangura Caballero and Angie Jurado Quintana. We look forward to seeing you there! Telde de Cultura #gestel #bibliotecasmunicipalesdetelde
