Vertical Writing: Fresh Voices of French Fiction

Talk

Pierre Senges is known for his radio adaptation of Gustave Flaubert’s Bouvard et Pécuchet, as well as for for his quirky, poetic Lichtenberg Fragments (Dalkey Archive). He, Noemi Lefebvre and Quebec-born Hélène Frédérick are some of the up and coming writers of the Verticales list, who share a radical approach to narrative and document. Conversations with the writers will be accompanied by a series of readings on realism, literary debt and new forms of writing, introduced by Emmanuel Bouju (IUF) and Jeanne Guyon (Verticales).
