OxTalks will soon move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events.' There will be a need for an OxTalks freeze. This was previously planned for Friday 14th November – a new date will be shared as soon as it is available (full details will be available on the Staff Gateway).
In the meantime, the OxTalks site will remain active and events will continue to be published.
If staff have any questions about the Oxford Events launch, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
Event in French.
Marie NDiaye will be in conversation with Ève Morisi (St Hugh’s College), as part of the ‘Contemporains’ series.
Organised in collaboration with the Alliance Française d’Oxford.
Marie Ndiaye published her first novel, Quant au riche avenir, when she was 17. She won the Prix Goncourt in 2009 with Trois femmes puissantes. Her play Papa doit manger is the sole play by a living female writer to be part of the repertoire of the Comédie française. She co-wrote the screenplay for the 2022 legal drama Saint Omer alongside its director Alice Diop, and Amrita David. In September 2022 the film was selected as France’s official selection for Best International Film at the 95th Academy Awards.
