Everything is changing, constantly speeding up. What to do? How about taking some time for books and reading\u2026 For its 24th<\/sup> edition, Thursday, April 28 to Sunday, May 8<\/strong>, Blue Metropolis International Literary Festival<\/strong> is pleased to return to enriching, in-person programming (May 5 to 8) coupled with virtual encounters (April 28 to May 4). \u201cWe are delighted to reach beyond Montreal with our extensive online programming, and are eager to welcome back audiences and participating authors for thought-provoking live events. This year, along with a focus on the juxtaposition of science and literature, we also honour Ukrainian authors and the power of the written word to promote change,\u201d said William St-Hilaire<\/strong>, Blue Metropolis Executive and Artistic Director. Event venues include Hotel 10, the Grande Biblioth\u00e8que and McCord Museum.<\/p>

Our era is experiencing upheavals on a number of fronts; environmental, social and individual. Do ecology and the human species have a common future? And now with the recent attacks on Ukraine, war is back in Europe. Have we arrived at a crossroads? The Festival offers some answers to these questions, and to this year\u2019s theme\u2014Planet, society, people: what age are we?<\/strong>Throughout the course of 10 days, over 250 participants from Quebec, Canada and abroad are set to converge on Montreal to meet, read, discover and reread. There\u2019s a wide variety of events in store, with full programming described at bluemetropolis.org\/2022festival\/<\/a>.<\/p>
