Known before the pandemic as "Long Night of Literatures", this literature festival in which prestigious European writers participate has already become a classic on the cultural agenda of the city of New Delhi. This year's edition, for reasons of force majeure, will be held online, but it will offer a program of literary activities as varied and complete as in previous editions. The Catalan writer Eva Baltasar will be our guest.


Eva Baltasar (Barcelona, 1978) is a writer and poet. Her novel Permafrost (Catalan Booksellers' Award 2018, Finalist Prix Médicis Étranger 2021), translated into more than ten languages, is the first installment of a three volume work with female protagonists which is followed by Boulder (Òmnium Award for the Best Catalan Novel 2020) and which will close with Mamut. The author lives with her daughters in a town near the mountains.
