Exiled Lit Cafe – Tuesday 28th April at 6.30 pm

Tongues of Fire

Instituto Cervantes London, in collaboration with Exiled Writers Ink, presents an evening of poetry and literature in tribute to Alfredo Cordal and his book Lenguas de Fuego / Tongues of Fire. Guest writers and speakers will explore his legacy.

Alfredo Cordal (Santiago de Chile, 23 April 1941 – London, 7 October 2022), poet and journalist in his native Chile, was forced into exile during Pinochet’s military regime in the 1970s—an exile that remained at the core of his being and about which he never stopped writing. He was also a playwright and a prominent performance artist of his own work. He was an Exiled Writers Ink member.
