Véronique Ovaldé and Nicolas Mathieu to lead 2027 edition of Nuits de la lecture
The Centre national du livre has named the two French authors as godmother and godfather of the reading festival's eleventh edition, set for January 20 to 24, 2027, around the theme of childhood.
Véronique Ovaldé and Nicolas Mathieu will serve as marraine and parrain of the 2027 Nuits de la lecture, according to Livres Hebdo. The eleventh edition of the festival, organised by the Centre national du livre, will run from January 20 to 24, 2027.
This year's edition is built around the theme of childhood, Livres Hebdo reports. Thousands of events are planned across France and abroad, in the format the Nuits de la lecture have followed in previous years: readings, meetings and public programming held in libraries, bookshops and cultural venues over several days in January.
No further details on the programme, participating venues or guest authors have yet been released.
