This Sunday 4 March At 18h30

Our Guests of Honor:

Anthony Steyning

Author



Manda Djinn, Vocalist

Robert Jonathan Frost (John), Chef

Soiree Litteraire et Gastronomique

Anthony Steyning is the author of three acclaimed novels. He is also an essayist, critic and playwright whose plays have been performed in Montreal and New York.

From Anthony: "Over the years I seem to have developed a probing type of writing that digs very deep and very wide, curious to find out where the beauty and all the hurt began. First cutting through the crap, I frequently stumble upon how matters really stand in relation to each other--- issues, trends or conditions, ostensibly linked or not but in the end affecting us in a fashion that isn't always evident. Next, I attempt to relive my findings through half-real or fully fictional characters placed in some sort of dramatic context, recreating everything I've put my fingers on while attempting to involve the same core dynamics that produced these in the first place.In other words, real bits of history felt and re-lived from the sidewalks up.". His first novel, "The Vortical Man," was published in Paris and led to Anthony meeting Lawrence Durrell, who became a supporter of his work.His latest novel is "Budapest My Love". Anthony Steyning currently resides in southern Spain. Visit: www.AnthonySteyning.com

Manda Djinn, jazz and gospel song stylist, former Folies Bergère star,
composer and playwright, is in Paris since 1984. Aside from concerts
around France, she can be heard monthly at jazz club, the Swan Bar on
Bld. du Montparnasse. Coming dates: March 3rd & April 28th, Le Petit
Journal Montparnasse, March 9th. See website for details on these and

other dates: http://mandadjinn.free.fr

John gave a talk in January about his adventures as a pioneer American chef, owning an American restaurant in London, "Boston Lobster Live". near Buckingham Palace during the 90's.
