The Mandarache Prize, within the program of the Hay Festival of Colombia (12/12/2018)

The Hay Festival, one of the most prestigious literary festivals in the international arena, has programmed in its 2019 edition in Cartagena de Indias various activities with the writer Juan Carlos Méndez Guédez, finalist of the Mandarache 2018 Award for his novel 'The dance of Madame Kalalú '(Siruela).

This is an action sponsored and subsidized by Accion Cultural Española AC / E, which is incorporated into the list of Mandarache Project collaborators and which culminates three years of the 'Mandarache Orillas' initiative, which pursues the internationalization of the jury of the Mandarache Prize through the participation of students from Cartagena in Colombia and Cartagena in Chile, who read and vote the finalist books with the readers of Cartagena in Spain.

Juan Carlos Méndez Guédez will maintain a dialogue with the writer Julio Olaciregui, who has participated as a protagonist in Leer El Caribe, an educational program similar to the Mandarache that seeks to promote contemporary Colombian Caribbean literature among high school students and mobilizes each year, as his brother in Spain, thousands of students and teachers around reading education and the current narrative.

The dialogue will be conducted by Professor Rosalba Tejeda Mendoza and will be attended by students who have participated in the two programs and have read the two authors.

The Orillas Mandarache initiative, thanks to which the jury of Mandarache has been international for three years, is consolidated in this way within the successful Mandarache Project of Reading Education promoted by the Youth Council of the City of Cartagena.
