Eric-Emmanuel Schmitt

Thursday, January 22, 2009 at 7pm

As one of the most read and produced French-language writers in the world, Eric-Emmanuel Schmitt has experienced an extraordinarily diverse career. His works have been translated into more than 40 languages and produced in 50 countries. He has met with huge success both on stage and in bookstores. His novels include the much-loved Oscar et la dame rose, which is the basis for this January’s production of Oscar and the Pink Lady in Florence Gould Hall, starring Rosemary Harris.

Join FIAF for this unique in-person discussion and book-signing with this most fascinating author, playwright, and now movie director. Marjolijn de Jager, who translated Oscar et la dame rose into English, will moderate the discussion.
