The Reading Club reads Chinese poetry

The Reading Club of the Library devotes this afternoon’s session to Chinese poetry, on the occasion of the completion of the CHINA #1 exhibition.

On Friday 29 April at 17.45, a guided tour of the exhibition will be followed by the reading of selected poems at the BLUE2 gallery, among the exhibits. As noted by Sonia Konstantinopoulou, head of the Reading Club, "to many of us in the Western world, Chinese poetry remains as unknown as the civilisation that spawned it.

The meeting is open to the public.
