Souvenir International Literary Magazine: Presentation with founder Kyle Berlin

Drawing on his experiences abroad and his passion for literary history, Kyle will share the stories of American writers who made Paris their home — including Ernest Hemingway, whose own story has deep Midwestern roots — how the city became a creative haven for some of America’s most influential authors, and his unique perspective on its literary legacy.
Learn about the contemporary literary magazine - Souvenir - and the current issue (Issue 2), which explores the fascinating world of the small Parisian literary magazines of the 1920s.
