I shall be at Imaginales, in the Vosges town of Épinal, from the middle of this current week: May 18 – 21. My schedule, as sent to me in advance by Lionel Davoust, my brilliant and irreplaceable French interpreter, is as follows:
Thursday 18th
14h, venue: Magic Mirrors 2
The wonderful journeys of reading
Friday 19th
17h, venue: Magic Mirrors 1
Time and its travels
Saturday 20th
10h, venue: Magic Mirrors 1
Post-apocalyptic worlds
12h30, lunch with readers
Sunday 21th
17h, venue: Magic Mirrors 1
Worldbuilding and worldbuilders
Lionel is himself a writer of great popularity and esteem in France, and I am always amazed by and thankful for the huge amount of time he gives up at events like Imaginales to translate for me. He makes even my most desperate or garbled comment sound elegant and interesting.
If by any chance you can be in Épinal this week, I should love to meet you and say hello. Go to the book tent: this is where we lurk when not in the Magic Mirrors.
