On 18 May 2020 Nathalie Léger was online with Jonathan Gibbs and Natasha Lehrer for the Beyond Words French Literature Festival.

Courtesy of the  Institut Français, a wonderful triptych of videos treats us to a subtitled interview with author Nathalie Léger, a presentation by novelist and reviewer Jonathan Gibbs, and a reading from The White Dress (excerpts in English and French) from translator Natasha Lehrer.

All videos can be watched and re-watched here: http://beyondwordslitfest.co.uk/the-white-dress/

You can even view the documentary which inspired The White Dress; The Bride follows the journey of Italian performance artist Pippa Bacca.: http://beyondwordslitfest.co.uk/the-bride/
