Jachym Topol
This year’s festival will be headlined by the recipient of the 2015 Vilenica Prize, the Czech writer Jáchym Topol, who became a recognisable European prose writer by means of his literary opus that is infused with both personal and collective experiences.
This year’s Slovene Author in Focus is the writer, poet, and playwright Milan Jesih, whose poems express artistic sensitivity and are always filled with an undulating magic of language.
