French-Rwandan author and hip-hop artist Gaël Faye will discuss his award-wining novel “Small Country,” a poignant coming-of-age story of his fictional doppelgänger, Gabriel, who is forced to move to France when Burundi and Rwanda are hit by civil war and genocide.
Hosted by the Department of Romance Languages and Literatures and moderated by ND professor Alison Rice. A book-signing event will take place prior to the reading, starting at 3:30 p.m. in the Forum of Jenkins and Nanovic Halls.
This event is made possible by generous support from: The Department of Romance Languages and Literatures | The Institute for Scholarship in the Liberal Arts, College of Arts and Letters | The Teaching Beyond the Classroom Grant, College of Arts and Letters | The Kellogg Institute for International Studies | The Nanovic Institute for European Studies | The Cultural Services of the French Embassy.

All are welcome.
