Wara Settembru. Anthology of contemporary Maltese literature

With publishing of the anthology and guest authors, special attention of the 33rd Vilenica will be brought to Maltese literature, which is still rather unknown in Slovene literary space. The anthology of contemporary Maltese literature under the title Wara Settembru presents 20 authors who have put the Maltese literature on the literary map of the world; world-renowned literary names can be found in the anthology, as are the recipients of the The European Union Prize for Literature Immanuel Mifsud and Walid Nabhan. On the occasion of the publishing of the anthology, the festival will host the awarded author Clare Azzopardi who writes both for children and adults, writer, translator and performer Loranne Vella, poet Norbert Bugeja, lecturer of postcolonial studies at the Mediterranean Institute of the University of Malta, as well as Immanuel Misfud, lecturer of literature at the University of Malta who has published many prose and poetry books and has even wrote some original lullabies.

The Anthology has been funded with the support from Slovenian Book Agency.
