ARGENTINA: IN SEARCH OF UFOS
As part of our project to explore the Americas, Scottish novelist Kevin MacNeil travelled around Argentina with journalist, novelist and short story writer Mariana Enriquez. Starting in Buenos Aires, the writers set off in search of lost voices, both literary and of other citizens within the capital city. MacNeil travelled across the Pampas to the city of Cordoba, while Enriquez embarked on her own journey into the imagination of a Scottish writer, both in search of UFOs. Today they share some of their unforgettable experiences, and some of the writing inspired by the journey. Chaired by Nick Barley.
Part of our Outriders series of events.
