Jubilation & Celebration: Black Fountain Press has a first Servais Prize winner in its catalogue
Joy also because the award goes to an English-language publication for the first time in the Servais Prize history.
The perfect conclusion to a successful year of publishing: five books in one year!
We’re proud and happy!
You are most cordially invited to meet the author at Walfer Bicherdeeg.
James will sign books at the Black Fountain stand in Hall 2 on Saturday 16 November, from 14:00 to 15:00.
At 15:00, we will abduct our writer to the neighbouring Café littéraire, where the signings and celebrations continue over some celebratory complimentary crémant. At 16:45 you will have the opportunity to listen to James read from his novel and talk about it to interviewers from Radio 100Komma7 at Maison Dufaing.
We would be delighted if you could make your way to the book fair and celebrate INTO BABEL with us.
Join us for an evening of terror and fear. Meet the author of NIGHTSCAPES, the master of dark tales, Mr Percy Lallemang. We’ll talk about (and with?) spectres, vampires, body snatchers, Satanists, and psychotic killers. And we’ll have drinks and finger food! Don’t miss this special pitch-black Fountain evening. Venue: HQ at 1c, rue de Luxembourg, L-8140 Bridel. Date: 22 October. Start: 7 pm.
