Capri Island
The third edition of Le Conversazioni - Writers in Conversation will take place in Capri from June 27 to July 6, organized by Dazzle Communication with FMR Foundation -Marilena Ferrari, joining this year as a partner of the review. Ideated by Antonio Monda and Davide Azzolini, the cycle of literary meetings with English language authors, will be hosted, as in past years, in the small Tragara square of Capri. By continuing the work started two years ago on the concept of identity, which progressed last year into the relationship between word and image, the 2008 edition of Le Conversazioni is dedicated to the theme of memory. The writers - invited to Capri to consider and develop the evocative, spiritual and ethical value of memory through an open dialogue involving the audience - are: - Paul Auster - Siri Hustvedt (June 27) - Junot Díaz (June 28) - Patrick McGrath (June 29) - AM Homes (July 4) - Jonathan Lethem (July 5) - Daniel Mendelsohn - Alessandro Piperno (July 6) The meetings will be recorded also in a Quaderno published by FMR featuring unpublished writings by the invited authors enriched by an iconographic section inspired by the theme of the edition. Le Conversazioni have been organized by Dazzle Communication - since 2000 working in communications and the production of cultural events - and FMR Foundation - Marilena Ferrari - born as a "site" for the excellence of the art of the book, and for the safeguard, development and protection of its history - is also made possible with the support of the Ministero per i Beni e le Attività Culturali, Città di Capri, Gioco del Lotto-Lottomatica and La Repubblica.
