Three Cultures at the Seville Book Fair 2017

Details

  • Start: 24 May 2017
  • End: 25 May 2017

The Fundación Tres Culturas and the Centro Andaluz de las Letras are organising the presentation of Manuel Vicent's latest novel, The regatta (Alfaguara), on Wednesday 24 May at 9pm at the Pérgola, as part of the activities of the Seville Book Fair (FLS) 2017. The author will be in conversation with journalist Alejandro Luque.

With this presentation, Tres Culturas is once again present at the FLS with the novel in which Vicent returns to the Mediterranean, showing both the mosaic of cultures that make it up, and its condition as an everlasting stage for adventure. Fiction and the most palpitating current affairs merge in a narrative full of critical sense and sensuality.
