Literature starts from reality. But it is through literature that we can imagine a world, different from the one we know. That is the moment when literature transcends reality and makes an alternate one possible. It is through such imagination that reality is enriched and that reality becomes the subject of yet more questions. 

 This festival is where the examination into our reality comes together with the power of imagination. And here, we enter another world of literature that is wide open to the writers and the readers.  

 We invite you to this world of literature, where reality and imagination coexist, beyond the boundaries of nationality and generations.
