Tickets and details at the source

The fourth edition of Utopia Açores fills six days in Ponta Delgada, on São Miguel, with writers, readers, students and people from the book trade. The programme mixes conversations and book presentations with sessions for children and teenagers, school visits, artistic moments and literary dinners under the title "A Literatura é para Comer". Rita Redshoes performs her show "O Bem, Bem Feito". Confirmed authors are Hugo Van Der Ding, João Tordo, José Eduardo Agualusa, Juan Gabriel Vásquez, Pedro Mexia, Ricardo Araújo Pereira and Rita Redshoes. Entry is free. For a visitor who reads Portuguese, or follows Portuguese-language writing, this is the island's main literary week; for everyone else the Rita Redshoes show is the easier way in.
