Multilingual Poetry Reading in Hallonbergen [PHOTOS]

On December 1, 2018, at Hallonbergens bibliotek, Sundbyberg, NolitchX organized a multilingual reading with poems in Arabic, Persian, Spanish and Swedish in collaboration with Bibliotek Sundbyberg. The participating poets were Kawther AbuHani, Roxana Crisólogo (Finland), Jasim Mohamed, Namdar Nasser and Magnus William-Olsson. This was the first time that young quirky poet Kawther AbuHani, residing in Stockholm, reads her poems to a Swedish audience with Swedish translations.

All poets had poems read in Persian and Swedish besides their original versions. Translators for the event were Azita Ghahreman, Mohsen Emadi (Persian) and Petronella Zetterlund (Swedish).

The event was a collaboration between NolitchX and Bibliotek Sundbyberg with support from Nordic Culture Point. Thanks to the audience for coming!
