Club de lecture

Join the Instituts français Bremen Book Club!

Every month, we invite you to a cozy get-together over a cup of coffee to share your literary discoveries on a specific theme: novels, comics, poetry, plays, articles, or screenplays… Every genre has a place here.

Discuss texts that have moved, fascinated, or made you think, and introduce works by Francophone authors. In a supportive and respectful atmosphere, every opinion is welcome.
