Uppsala International Literature Festival
Location: Uppsala Stadsbiblioteket
Join the 8th Uppsala International Literature Festival! This year, the literary horizons at the event have expanded further to present a number of authors from Nigeria, a country of immense cultural output. With a population of more than 230 million people, covering approximately 250 ethnic minorities and 500 different languages, Nigera is not only Africa’s largest nation, but has also been a significant producer of culture for centuries.
The Uppsala International Literature Festival’s ambition is once again to present literature and writing from other cultural spheres and create spaces for conversations about literary creation around two of the major conflict zones of our time.
