Rendez-vous littéraires in Palestine
1/8
Les Rendez-vous littéraires is an initiative launched in 2017.
In the past, EDLD has sent a delegation of authors to Senegal. While there, they were paired with local Senegalese authors. Together, the authors took part in various literary events, readings and meetings, the idea being to build bridges across borders.
In 2022, EDLD organized Les Rendez-vous littéraires in Morocco.
This year, we are proud to invite Canadian authors to Palestine to meet and participate in literary and cultural events with Palestinian authors in various cities: Yaffa, Haifa, Nazareth, Jerusalem, Ramallah, Bethlehem and Jericho.
Canadian authors participating:
- Rodney Saint-Éloi, Haitian-born Canadian poet and publisher
- Gabriel Robichaud, Canadian poet
- Heather O’Neill, novelist
- Moe Clark, Métis (indigenous Canadian) writer and multidisciplinary artist
- Victoria Hunt, Australian artist
- Elkahna Talbi, Canadian-Tunisian poet and slam artist
- Yara El-Ghadban, Canadian-Palestinian writer
- Kevin Lambert, novelist
