15th–16th May 2014 REID HALL, 4 RUE DE CHEVREUSE, 75006 PARIS

A two-day conference at Reid Hall, Paris 6e, sponsored by Mount Allison University (Canada), the University of Kent (UK) and Columbia University Undergraduate Programs in Paris (USA).

Belgian by origin, raised principally in the Far East and now splitting her time between Paris and Brussels, Amélie Nothomb, a self-described  ‘apatride belge’ questions the links between identity, memory and place not only in her autobiographically inspired works but also in her fictional writings.
