Exploration of the book – Exils au féminin
A closing evening dedicated to literature, memory, and emotion. During this meeting, São Gonçalves, a librarian at the Centre for Documentation on Human Migrations, will highlight the female voices of exile and migration in contemporary Portuguese literature. Before and after April 25, 1974, women's experiences and writings have evolved deeply: from a period marked by struggle, resistance, and solitude to an era of new perspectives on expression, participation, and appropriation of personal experience. Through these stories, one discovers all the richness and complexity of the journeys of those who had to leave their homeland.
Silêncio que se vai cantar o Fado.
The evening continues with an artistic performance by actress Magaly Teixeira, from the third generation of Portuguese immigration in Luxembourg, accompanied by Miguel Braga on Portuguese guitar and Joaquim Caniço on classical guitar. Between poetry and fado, she invites the audience on an immersive journey into her memories.
Settle in for a moment in the atmosphere of a small tavern in the Alfama district of Lisbon, let yourself be carried by the language of Camões, feel the strings resonate and the depth of saudade.
