European Union National Institutes for Culture - London

Is one of many events, which take place simultaneously across European capitals on the 12th of May to celebrate European literature in a genuine trans-European event. In London, writers from the Czech Republic, Italy, France, Hungary, Poland and Romania, introduced by their patrons, read their books and engage in a debate.
 
For one night, capital cities across Europe are presenting simultaneous celebrations of writing and reading on European Literature Night, and the British Library will once again host an electrifying evening of readings and conversation from some superlative writers, both emerging and established. Come and meet this year's authors Jacek Dehnel (Poland), Otto de Kat (Netherlands), Paolo Giordano (Italy), Georgi Gospodinov (Bulgaria), Julya Rabinowich (Austria), Giedra Radvilaviciute, (Lithuania) and Milos Urban (Czech Rep.). 
The event will be chaired by writer and presenter Rosie Goldsmith.
