Literary break-fast, which the Association for Contemporary Arts X-OP (Društvo za sodobno umetnost X-OP) carries out with partners within the international cooperation project Other Words / Druge besede, a literary circle for small and minority languages in Europe, will this time host Petra Kolmančič. Tonja Jelen moderates the debate.

The literary evening will take place in two parts. The first part presents a video, followed by a discussion of the poetry and cultural projects of the poet and cultural worker Petra Kolmanič.

About Petra Kolmančič's poetry in brief: "As the saliva melts and tastes different darkness, trap after trap gets smaller and smaller. And the final notch hits, but it's still not over. Dear and dear." (T. Jelen)

Petra Kolmančič (b. 1974) is the author of six poetry collections, for the penultimate P(l)ast za P(l)astjo she received the Veronika Award in 2014. She is included in various thematic anthologies of contemporary Slovenian poetry; her poems are set to music and translated into multiple languages.
