The bookstore invites its customers on Saturday June 13 to several meetings with authors and artists.
It has become an unmissable event for Lodevois readers: since 2020, the “Un point un trait” bookstore has been organizing its major festival which combines literature, music and live shows. This Saturday, June 13, the event returns for its sixth edition, with a program full of originality.
Young talents
“The five authors we invited all have very different profilesconfides Stéphane Pahl, who took over the establishment in 2018. If we chose them, it’s because their books are favorites!”
From 10 a.m., Lodévois residents will be able to go to the Dardé hall to meet these writers, who will sign their works, before meeting in the afternoon at 3 p.m. in the bookstore garden for a more confidential discussion. Proof of the confidence that the “Un point un trait” team places in young authors, Eléa Marini, who has just published her very first novel The sky has it bad (Éditions de l’Olivier), is part of the list of guests. For this first opus, the young woman was rewarded last year with the “Habiter le monde” prize, awarded by Free Midday. She will be accompanied by another young talent, Charlotte Monsarrat, who is coming to present her second work The book of sap (editions la Tripode), “a quest across plains and forests”.
Two other more experienced profiles will complete the picture, Lilian Bathelot who publishes Aven published by La Manufacture des Livres (a novel about Aven Armand in Lozère), as well as Antonin Varenne who will sign The Eagle’s son (Gallimard), a story about the Vietnam War. Finally, lovers of the ninth art will be able to count on the presence of Joseph Falzon, the designer of a comic strip based on a true story The man who sold the Eiffel Tower (éditions Dargaud).
Wines and sketches
But beyond the literary aspect, the people of Lodévois will also have the opportunity to experience a festive evening thanks to the multiple partnerships established by Stéphane Pahl. The event will kick off at 6 p.m. at the bookstore with a tasting of AOP Terrasses du Larzac wines (in moderation, of course), before an improvisation show at 7 p.m. on the market square led by the Captain’s Company.
The principle? Spectators write a word or phrase on a piece of paper, and the artists create an explosive sketch. While the public will be able to eat at the Factory brasserie, the party will end with a concert hosted by the Bekar group, where the sounds of the violin, drums, bass and piano will combine.
