The theme of the twelfth edition of the Franco-Irish Literary Festival, Generations – Glúnta, will be discussed through four round-table discussions:
● Etre de son temps : Belonging to a generation - Cuid de ghlúin faoi leith
● Le temps de la révolte : Generation gaps - An deighilt idir ghlúnta
● Au fil du temps : Words in time - An briathar trí chriathar an ama
● Le temps après : The next generation - An ghlúin atá le teacht
We look forward to seeing you on the 8th, 9th and 10th of April 2011!
