European Literature Night
with a special centerpiece talk with New York Times Bestselling Author Marieke Nijkamp

Presented by Czech Center New York, EUNIC and 15 cultural institutes and embassies in New York.

EUROPEAN LITERATURE NIGHT BRINGS THE SPIRIT OF EUROPEAN CAFÉ CULTURE TO NEW YORK CITY, FEATURING LIVE PERFORMED READINGS FROM 15 EXCEPTIONAL EUROPEAN BOOKS, ACCOMPANIED BY AN INTERNATIONAL BOOK FAIR AND TALK WITH AN AUTHOR.

European Literature Night (ELN) comes to New York City, with actors performing a curated selection of passages from exceptional literary works of fiction and poetry from across the European continent. The selected books will be available in a book fair along with other international titles.

New York audiences will move from room to room to experience literary work from prominent and up-and-coming European authors whose work allows for the exploration of parallels between European experiences and the current cultural and political climate in America. The event is modeled after its overseas counterpart, offering a European style experience where audiences can listen to readings and exchange ideas while enjoying a beer or a glass of wine.

The evening will feature an in-person conversation with writer Marieke Nijkamp, a Dutch fiction writer whose first novel This is Where it Ends was a New York Times Young Adult Bestseller, followed by a Q&A.

This special evening is free and open to the public, hosted by Czech Center New York and the Consulate General of the Czech Republic in New York with the collaboration of fifteen partnering cultural institutions and consulates.
