The Literary Café: Readings and good talks is a cultural initiative of Quinta dos Girassóis, in partnership with three public universities, two of them Brazilian (State University of Rio Grande do Norte and Federal University of Rio Grande do Norte), and one Portuguese (University of Coimbra, through the collaboration of the North|South Library of the Centre for Social Studies). It aims to promote literature and informed debate on public interest themes. 

Beyond the connection with literature, these meetings make a social analysis of political contexts of world experiences through the creative gesture of writing and reading. That is, they translate biopolitical and subjective processes of appropriation of collective experiences creatively reflected by the authors in the literature, poetry and essays presented.

For the year 2023 the chosen theme is the Theatre. The collaboration of the North/South Library with the Literary Café follows previous cultural projects, such as the Coffee with Books and Readings in Cultural and Linguistic Diversity, carried out by the library with the aim of promoting books and reading. These projects have drawn a lot of participation, especially for Readings in Cultural and Linguistic Diversity, which is relevant for the students of the Language and Literature programmes. In this sense, the Literary Café constitutes another space for meeting, reflection and debate including the public of readers of the Library, in areas that are of great interest to all CES students and teaching staff.
