I'm surprised this hasn't gotten more press (and no one told me about it), but in France they're currently holding le festival AMERICA© (what's the deal with the © ?) -- celebrating "les littératures et cultures d'Amérique du Nord" (though since apparently that doesn't quite suffice, South American countries outnumber those from the north this time around).
Toni Morrison headlines, but there's a decent US contingent, as well as top-flight talent from elsewhere, including Sergio Ramírez (see, for example, A Thousand Deaths Plus One), or Bonsai-author Alejandro Zambra.
I look forward to the reports -- maybe from participant Iván Thays ?
