IFOA International Festival of Authors 2014

IFOA is a leading festival that brings together the best writers of contemporary literature for interviews, debates and roundtable discussions with readers. AC/E is collaborating in the 35^th edition for the first time by supporting the participation of the authors Andrés Barba and Nicolás Casariego, both in the general programme of readings and in the debates held in the Found in Translation section.

For the fifth year running, IFOA will pay tribute to literary translation, making available to readers literature in a variety of languages and formats and focusing a large part of its programme on translated literature through Found in Translation, which seeks to boost Canadians’ knowledge of international authors.

IFOA is one of the eight festivals that make up the Word Alliance, a professional platform that brings together the most select literary festivals in the world, guaranteeing a wider scope and dissemination of their actions and more effective promotion of the participating authors. The festival has become the most important literary event in the country and a key reference in the field of literature, as it offers the authors who take part the opportunity to present their works at an internationally renowned forum.
