DOKU’22
In the Framework of the Program Series “Csalog25”
Reading of the winning and prize-winning entries. Host: Gabriella Nagy, Editor-in-Chief of Litera literary portal
The Világháló-Irodalom Alapítvány, in partnership with the Litera Literary Portal and Blinken OSA, have announced a competition in memory of Zsolt Csalog, writer and sociographer, who died 25 years ago.
Competitors were invited to submit short prose works consisting of a documentary portrait of a person in today's Hungarian society who has fallen on hard times. Not only has the economic crisis plunged hundreds of thousands of people into poverty in Hungary, but there is also a barely visible, silent and increasingly widespread layer of society that has been living in bleak conditions for decades. The competition aims to familiarize the reader with their lives and their fate, with the help of literature. The competition can be followed: on Litera Doku’22, on Litera’s Facebook page, on the project page , and on its Instagram page.
Deadline for submissions: September 28, 2022.
Find out more about the competition here.
Venue: CEU Budapest / Central European University Lecture Hall 103, 1051 Budapest, Nádor utca 15.
In the framework of the Csalog25 program series.
