The World is a Book – with Evald Flisar and Dušan Šarotar in conversation with Rosie Goldsmith

Thursday 10 November 2016, 7 pm at Waterstones Piccadilly

Join us for a Slovenian Literature evening in the company of two great contemporary novelists Evald Flisar and Dušan Šarotar along with Rosie Goldsmith, Director of the European Literature Network to celebrate the new collaboration of Istros Books and the Peter Owen World Series.

In collaboration with Istros Books, the Peter Owen World Series brings readers three carefully selected titles in translation from a particular language, culture or geographical region. Read a single book in each series, or try all three and experience the range and diversity to be found in contemporary literary scenes from around the world. A new series is published in the Spring and Autumn of each year. We launch in 2016 with three novels for the Slovenian Autumn: Evald Flisar’s Three Loves, One Death,Dušan Šarotar’s Panorama and also Jela Krecic’s None Like Her – all of which will be available to buy this evening.

£3 tickets (redeemable against purchase of one of this evening’s books) are available in store, by telephone 020 7851 2400 or by email piccadilly@waterstones.com

The European Literature Network was created with the mission of championing great writing from Europe in the UK – and doing it together. Open to writers, translators, publishers, agents, booksellers, festival directors, arts managers and journalists, ELNet is a free, collaborative hub for sharing news and views.

ELNet operates without funding or grants (unfortunately) and is therefore dependent on the passion, professionalism and dedication of our core team and on an extensive network of volunteers, supporters, partners and donors.
