Associate Professor Benjamin Hoffmann will present his latest novel, “L’île de la Sentinelle”, at the upcoming Festival des Littératures Atlantide in Nantes, France. Each year, this festival brings together fifty artists from all over the world to discuss their work. The conversation Professor Hoffmann will participate in will be directed by Alain Mabanckou, a novelist, poet, and UCLA professor. 

For more information on Professor Hoffmann’s latest books, listen to a conversation on Radio Judaïca with Dr. Natalie David-Weil. The conversation includes his latest book, and “Les Paradoxes de la postérité,” which he published in 2019. Additionally, look out for “L’île de la Sentinelle,” which is forthcoming in English and Italian translations from the Liverpool University Press and Grimes Editors.
