Sixth year of the European Literature Night with six of the best writers from around the continent.

//

ELN is an annual literary showcase initiated by the Czech Centres and bringing the best of the continent's writers and contemporary European literature to the UK. It is a unique initiative involving 28 European Cultural Institutes and Embassies, many arts organisations, and the European Commission Representation in the UK which promotes European literature of all genres in English translation.

In its sixth year, we're celebrating European Literature Night with six of the best writers from around the continent. Superb reportage, humorous explorations of the nature of power, chilling dystopia-meets-crime fiction and haunting portrayals of broken familial relationships all meet for one of the must-see events in the British literary calendar: with Jonas T. Bengtsson (Denmark), Julia Franck (Germany), Antoine Laurain (France), Diego Marani (Italy), Witold Szablowski (Poland) and Dimitri Verhulst (Belgium), chaired by acclaimed journalist Rosie Goldsmith.
For the first time, European Literature Night explored comics phenomenon by inviting acclaimed cartoonists Line Hoven (Germany), Lucie Lomova (Czech Republic), Max (Spain) and Judith Vanistendael (Belgium/Flanders) to discuss and read from their fascinating works.
