Dear all,

I hope you all find something you'd like to join in this issue - remember you can also find events at Vejle Municipality's event page det sker.

Vejle Reads // Shared reading - October 1st

 

Join the library for these sessions of shared reading, exploring outstanding Nordic literature in translation. Together we will read and discuss short passages from works by, among others, Karl Ove Knausgaard and Inger Christensen. No preparation is needed – just bring your curiosity and let the conversation flow as we pause to share thoughts, images, and ideas the texts inspire. 

These gatherings are not only about reading – they’re a chance to connect with other book lovers, exchange perspectives, and discover how literature can spark both conversation and friendship. Whether you come alone or with a friend, you’ll be part of an open and welcoming group where stories bring people together. 

Each session will also feature a beverage chosen to match the atmosphere of the literature, adding another layer to the experience. 

Coming dates; November 18th and Decenber 10th. 

Free of charge - but you must activate a ticket.
