Serious Topics

Amélie Vrla and Ian De Toffoli are two Luxembourg authors who, in their writing, address themes about the future. In Amélie Vrla's first novel, Enfanter une étoile qui danse, published by Hydre Editions, the protagonist, who is pregnant, faces her own maternal ambivalence. Why "bring a new being into the world, into the storm, when they didn't ask for it?" In his theatrical story Léa ou la théorie des systèmes complexes, published by Actes Sud in France, Ian De Toffoli tackles the burning issue of human resource depletion and the need to change the system so as not to leave a ruined world to future generations.
