ABOUT |

The first edition of the São Tomé Literary Festival brings together lusophony writers and artists in São Tomé between the 5th and 9th of April. Through multiple talks and scheduled activities we wish to bring the different tones of the Portuguese Language to the island, and promote new ideas and an open dialogue with all the ones that bring Portuguese words in their hearts.
