Petrkov at 3:30 p.m. on 28 September 2024
A tribute to Sylvie Germain in Petrkov.
“A Tribute to Petrkov” is part of the “Indian Summer with Sylvie Germain” series organised in collaboration with the Rokoko Theatre, which is presenting a stage adaptation of Le Livre des Nuits (The Book of Nights) by the French Institute in Prague, where the author will be interviewed as part of the Literary Café programme, and the Czech-French Cultural Centre in Petrkov.
A concert by students from the Jan Deyl Conservatory and an exceptional exhibition on Les éditions Romarin will follow this event in Petrkov. Annick Auzimour leads Les amis de Suzanne Renaud et Bohuslav Reynek (Romarin. Přátele Suzanne Renaudové a Bohuslava Reynka), a Grenoble-based publishing organisation. The event is organised by the Museum of Czech Literature in partnership with the French Institute in Prague.
To mark the occasion, Petr Novotný-nakladatelství Petrkov is republishing Sylvie Germain’s book Bohuslav Reynek à Petrkov : un nomade en sa demeure (Bohuslav Reynek in Petrkov: A Nomad at Home), which came out in France in 1998, for the second time in Czech translation (Bohuslav Reynek v Petrkově: poutník ve svém příbytku).
