HERE WE ARE – An evening with author Amy Hollowell

Through what appears at times to be a private, or personal, conversation, I seek to reflect a public, or impersonal, one. […] HERE WE ARE is an attempt to tell it like is, to provide all the news that’s not fit to print, so that we might close the gap that separates us readers and human beings from our words, from ourselves and from one another.

– Amy Hollowel

As leituras serão maioritariamente em inglês com alguns poemas em português.

Data: 8 August 2015,19h30
