The Auditorium Parco della Musica Ennio Morricone hosts the 16th edition of Libri Come, the festival of books and reading that this year will take place under the banner of the word Peace and will involve around two hundred guests for a total of over one hundred meetings, including lectures, dialogues, readings and exhibitions.
Every year Libri Come offers dozens of meetings around books that allow you to get to know writers better and enter into their works together.
And every year it proposes a word that indicates a node around which a good part of the meetings revolve and to which the final evening is dedicated during which, thanks to the books, actuality is more closely examined.
Among the guests at Libri Come Pace are some of the foreign names already confirmed: 2003 Nobel Peace Prize winner Shirin Ebadi and Pulitzer Prize winners Viet Thanh Nguyen and Nathan Thrall. And more: Amitav Ghosh, Mailys De Kerangal, Pankaj Mishra, Rachel Cusk, Richard Osman, Mathias Enard, Colm Tóibín, Eskhol Nevo, Yasmina Khadra, Uwe Timm, Fatma Aydemir, Sami al-Ajrami, Marcelo Rubens Paiva, Jamaica Kincaid.
As always, lectures, dialogues and readings also involve the most important names in Italian culture.
The exhibition, which like every year accompanies Libri Come, is entrusted to the artist Laika, in collaboration with the Rosso20sette gallery, with the original sketches of the street artist's most famous works, who will also be present with a live performance.
The Foyer Sinopoli, hosts the exhibition of Il Tavolo delle trattative (The Table of Negotiations), the work by Alessandro Bergonzoni and, for Soundcorner, the sound installation La voce delle poete (The Voice of Poets) by Donatella Spaziani.
Finally, AUTORItratti the exhibition by Riccardo Musacchio and Flavio Ianniello returns for the tenth year. It takes you on a journey through today's literary panorama to get to know and recognise the many guests of past editions of Libri Come.
