Écrivains des frontièresBorder Writers
The travel diary of a delegation from the International Writers’ Parliament on a trip to Palestine and Israel, responding to a call from the Palestinian poet Mahmoud Darwich, co-founder of the Parliament, and living under siege in Ramallah. They have come to express their solidarity at a time when conditions for thinking in this zone have become intolerable for all free men. The delegation included the America’s Russell Banks, Nigeria’s Wole Soyinka, Portugal’s José Saramago, China’s Bei Dao, South Africa’s Breyten Breytenbach, Spain’s Juan Goytisolo, Italy’s Vincenzo Consolo and France’s Christian Salmon. As the Palestinian Elias Sanbar put it: “we want to listen and to make heard the many voices that often get drowned out in the chaos of war - writers, artists, intellectuals and those who think about the future. Posit against the rationale of war, not a intervention force but forces of interpretation.”
