Mélusines - Conversation with Laure Gauthier and Sonja Kmec
“The book by Laure Gauthier is a narrative, a tale, a fable – simultaneously a dystopia, science fiction, a poetic and political text.” (quoted from Diacritik)
As part of the Luxembourg Urban Garden, the character of Mélusine will be introduced and discussed by Laure Gauthier (mélusine reloaded, José Corti, 2024) and Sonja Kmec (Melusina rediscovered, CID Femmes, 2010). Laure Gauthier's novel “mélusine reloaded,” awarded the Prix du Premier Roman 2024, depicts a slightly futuristic world where Mélusine, the serpent fairy, reappears. This narrative, combining feminist fable, ecological dystopia, and futuristic tale, reimagines the legend of this hybrid fairy while providing a critical and humorous perspective of our era.
