Supported by the Femmes Solidaires association and its magazine Clara, the feminist book fair Délivrées takes place at Prolé, in Nîmes. 

For the first time, the feminist book fair Délivrées, created by Femmes Solidaires, is available in the region and it is in Nîmes that it is happening, this Saturday March 16, at the new Prolé ter . "Femmes Solidaires is a popular education association, recalls Martine Gayraud, president of the Nîmes committee and member of the national management. We try to change mentalities, for example by intervening in schools but also among the general public with moments of sharing. 

Thus, with its magazine Clara, the association invites four authors for a literary festival, which takes place alongside several events feminists at Prolé. The public will thus be able to meet Elsa Thiébaut, feminist writer, specialist in ecofeminist thought, who publishes Ceci est mon temps; menopause, andropause other climatic adventures (editions Au Diable Vauvert) "She speaks of us by speaking of herself, she speaks of the intimate which joins the universal and she also addresses men", explains Martine Gayraud.

"Moments of sharing"

Another guest, André Castelli comes to present Camille, the abandoned (Nü publishing house ), dedicated to Camille Claudel and her confinement in the Montfavet asylum. "It's also a book about the system of male domination, the invisibility of women and this echoes the present with many countries where women are locked up& ;quot;, continues Martine Gayraud. 

Family violence is at the heart of the autobiographical story Dad why are you rich and mom she is poor ? (editions Number7) by Sandra Rosenzweig, which evokes "the traces that this can leave in existence". Finally, the living room welcomes Sophie Dutail-Deyries who studies the way in which stereotypes and inequalities are constructed at school with his essay School transgressions through the prism of gender: the invisibility of girls and survisibility boys (editions L'Harmattan). 

And as the meeting takes place at the Prolé, the day will end around a drink and with the songs of the duo Les Gambettes. < /p>
