A Heroine of the 20th century: a conversation with Anne Weber and Tess Lewis

  • Museum of Literature of Ireland 86 Saint Stephen's Green Dublin D02 XY43 Ireland (map)

What does it mean to be a hero in the 20th century? Epic Annette: A Heroine’s Tale recounts the extraordinary true story of Annette Beaumanoir, whose involvement with the French Resistance and the Algerian FLN cemented her name in history.

The Goethe-Institut and the Embassy of France in Ireland will present a conversation with German-French novelist Anne Weber, who turned the epic verse form to tell Beaumanoir’s gripping personal tale, and translator Tess Lewis at MoLi – Museum of Literature Ireland.

This event is supported by Dublin UNESCO City of Literature & Dublin City Council.
