Following its successful debut last year, OFF Stage Switzerland is geared up for its second edition at the Frankfurt Book Fair. The multilingual programme on Swiss literature will be presenting a broad-based selection of short readings, theme-based events, workshops and networking opportunities, with a special focus on publications in Italian and Italian-related topics. OFF Stage Switzerland complements Pro Helvetia’s activities at the book fair, which also include support for the Swiss collective booth and the mentoring programme ‘Frankfurter Seilschaften’.
