NBO Litfest

Taps sign. Simone is one of the philosophers whose works we will discuss. Very very controversial works and private life. Simone did not consider herself a philosopher and only got the title after her death. Come argument ready.

Perfection is a trauma response. (in the context of learning your mothertongues and feeling like you have to be fluent to speak) - @Nanjala1 at @nbolitfest

@jean_archived Please share interesting excerpts from your reading list 😁

Was at @nbolitfest for the weekend. My favourite part about Lit fests is leaving with a reading list fuller than my bank account. But my heart is full. Till next time!

Conversatorios, intercambio de ideas, música, convivencia y mucha literatura es lo que se vivió este fin de semana en el @nbolitfest 2026. #literatura #nairobi #HayFesttival

@polrvg habla sobre su participación en el @nbolitfest. @BritishCouncil @IRLlull

Las historias que cruzaron escenarios, idiomas y fronteras en el @nbolitfest también fueron posibles gracias al apoyo de @OpenSociety Conversaciones que exploraron el mito, la memoria, la brevedad, la experimentación literaria, el arte de las revistas y las maternidades contemporáneas reunieron voces fundamentales de la literatura y el pensamiento global. Gracias por apostar por los espacios donde las ideas se encuentran, la imaginación incomoda y la cultura se convierte en diálogo vivo. #NairobiLitfest #OpenSocietyFoundations #LiteratureLives #AfricanLiterature #GlobalVoices
