The Villa Gillet
Founded in 1987, the Villa Gillet welcomes in Lyon fiction and non-fiction writers, artists and scholars from over the world to ponder issues relevant to our ever shiflting world. The Villa Gillet makes the work of exciting contemporary thinkers accessible to the largest audience possible, by organizing events during the year, and during its festivals : the International Forum on the Novel — happening every year in May since 2007— co-organized with "Le Monde", Walls and Bridges, a ten-day series of events that happened from 2011 to 2013 and Mode d'emploi : un festival des idées — a festival of public debates — initiated in 2012.

Presented by : Stéphane Duchêne / Le Petit Bulletin
Abandoned, rejected, marginalized, sick, eccentric…: the characters imagined by our three guests reflect the multiple facets of a fragmented contemporary world, where borders tend to blur. Through polyphony in Emmanuelle Bayamack-Tam and Jean-Noël Orengo's works, or through the narrator's isolated voice with Loïc Merle, different manners are explored of depicting those intimate, social and political areas of disruption within those singular psychological worlds, whether they may be at the other end of the world or right next door.
6 € / Free for high school and university students, job-seekers, those receiving RSA aids and Amis de la Villa Gillet (with proof)
