PITAWAL IZERSKI – Literary Crime Festival

October 8–10, we invite you to Świeradów-Zdrój for the first time for PITAWAL IZERSKI – Literary Crime Festival.

For three days, the Promenade Hall (Hala Spacerowa) will become a meeting place with writers, a venue for discussions about literature and the region, a performative reading, a panel discussion, and a mini-regional book fair.

Joining us will be:
Zagubiony w Karkonoszach - Sławek Gortych,
Jaro na szlaku - Jarosław Szczyżowski
Panna Anna - Anna Szczypczyńska
Jolanta Maria Kaleta,
Anna Kruczkowska,
Agnieszka A. Milewska - autorka
Mariusz Gładzik. Autor.
Maja Wesołowska - strona autorska
Hubert Litwinionek
Joanna Krajewska art,
as well as Krzysztof Koziołek, who will lead workshops for school children at the "Izerka" Municipal Public Library.

We want Pitawal Izerski to be a festival firmly rooted here — in Świeradów-Zdrój, the Sudetes, and more broadly in Lower Silesia — but at the same time open. Open to well-known authors and those who are just gaining their readers. Open to crime fiction, history, regional stories, and all the secrets that literature loves most.

This is the first edition. And we really want it to be the beginning of something we will return to together with you for years to come.
