Un voyage dans l'écriture collaborative
The shining heart
Twenty-two hands collaborative writing project and literary exchange between authors from Switzerland and Hong Kong.
Eleven authors, two different cultures, but a single goal. They have all spent a year writing the same book,
creating a story that bridges the gap between East and West. The book shows that two different cultures have a lot in common. In this
reading session, the authors will illustrate how it all began, the problems they faced over the past year and what you can expect from
the end result. You are cordially invited to listen to the authors and their story as they create the book, followed by an aperitif
sponsored by the Consulate General of Switzerland.
« The shining heart »
Projet d’écriture collaborative à vingt-deux mains et échange littéraire entre auteurs de Suisse et de Hong Kong.
Onze auteurs, deux cultures différentes, mais un seul objectif. Ils ont tous passé un an à écrire le même livre, créant une histoire qui jette un pont entre l'Orient et l'Occident. Ce livre montre que deux cultures différentes ont beaucoup en commun. Au cours de cette séance de lecture, les auteurs expliqueront comment tout a commencé, les problèmes qu'ils ont rencontrés au cours de l'année écoulée et ce que vous pouvez attendre du résultat final. Vous êtes cordialement invités à écouter les auteurs et leur histoire pendant la création du livre. L’événement sera suivi d’un apéritif sponsorisé par le Consulat général de Suisse.
