As part of the literary event Refounding Stories 5: Refounding Utopias at the Espace de la diversité.

An event in collaboration with the Zone libre bookstore.

April 17, 2025

From May 21 to 28, 2023, the “Rendez-vous littéraires de l’EDLD” took place in Palestine-Israel. Eight authors from Quebec met with local writers and audiences for an artistic and human encounter rich in dialogue and intercultural rapprochement. They shared their journey, their encounters, and how Palestinian authors use their pens to survive, resist, and share their traumas, but also their joy of living.

With Yara El-Ghadban, Rodney Saint-Éloi, Kev Lambert, ElKahna Talbi, Moe Clark, and Heather O’Neill.

This event was made possible thanks to the support of the Conseil des arts et des lettres du Québec (CALQ) and the Canada Council for the Arts (CCA).
