A reading by Sylvain Prudhomme from his novel Par les routes / Allerorten took place in the Wall Library at the start of the winter semester.
Under the direction of Astrid Poier-Bernhard, French students had prepared the evening excellently and asked the author interesting questions. It was obvious that the student-centered format also appealed to the author. With his differentiated answers, he provided an exciting insight into his approach to writing, the conception of the characters and his literary concerns.
The event was well attended, all copies of the novel were sold and the author had a long time to sign them after the event.
The author's visit was made possible by the Department français d'Autriche and the Department culturel franco-autrichien de Graz.
