Literaktum jaialdiaren aurkezpena

Many writers will meet at the festival to be held in Donostia-San Sebastian, including Basque writers Eider Rodríguez, Kattalin Miner and Mariasun Landa. During these two weeks, “everyone will expose their vision of identity, feminism or artistic creation”, according to the organizers.

In total, there will be more than 50 guests. The festival will also feature several books: Bernardo Atxaga (Houses and Tombs) will present the novels recently published by Ibon Martin (Tulip Dance) and Karmele Jaio (Aitaren Etxea), which will be presented in the Official Section.

Tributes

The book by Ramón Saizarbitoria Egunero hasi will be 50 years since he saw the light. Literaktum has announced that he will pay tribute to his novel and that an exhibition will be held on the writer, who will be "in love". In addition, the program will offer a show on Joxean Artze, who died in 2018.

"We are expanding the fair, but in our measure, in a controlled way"
The fair in Ciboure began in 2019 as a day event, but in recent years there have also been organized events separate from the fair day in neighboring towns: It's the fair season. We talked with Ladix Arrosagarai, member of Baltsan, about the details of the Fair.

The Haunting House of Haster. Arraioz, homosexuality, Madrid
"That I needed things clean, and that I knew clearly from the tick-tick what I wanted, what attracted me"
It is the stepping stone of the Larretxe, next to the axe, the stone lifters, the chinga bearers and, in general, the great popular sportsmen. Patxi is his father, while Donato is his uncle. The Haunted Man is a social worker, a writer, a homosexual. We should all be proud.
