Reading and discussion on the Dutch of CrocAttack. Details in Dutch:
16 maart Assaf Gavron & Judith Frishman bij Spui 25
Kan een schrijver de wereld verbeteren? De Israëlische schrijver Assaf Gavron probeert het met zijn songteksten, zijn computerspel – dat hij die avond demonstreert – en zijn roman Krokodil van de aanslagen die zeer goed in Nederland werd ontvangen. En Judith Frishman – hoogleraar jodendom – is spreker. Zij ziet overeenkomsten tussen de integratie van de joden destijds en de moslims nu in West Europa. Voertaal Engels. Dinsdag 16 maart, 20.00-21.30 uur, Spui 25, Amsterdam, entree gratis, aanmelden via deze link.
