¿What is Europe now? Identity, culture and the post covid times. Kapka Kassakova and Jane Teller in conversation with Adam Biles
Two of the women from the powerful anthology Europa28, visions for the future, speak with Adam Biles about the "European" culture and experience. The book offers a vast range of perspectives, from 28 outstanding European women (thinkers, writers, scientists, entrepreneurs and artists) looking at this ever-changing continent with fresh eyes and suggesting ways in which we might rebuild it. Kapka Kassakova (Bulgaria/ UK) is the author of Lisière, a book on which she looks at her natal Bulgaria, historical forces in place, and at characters and stories from the region. Janne Teller is a critically acclaimed and best-selling Danish novelist and essayist; her work, including the well known Rien, confronts philosophical questions in life and civilization and often sparks controversial debate.
