If you're in Turin this week, please do consider coming to the Fonctions du surréalisme conference, where I'll be presenting my paper on Buñuel this Friday.

yes! presentations will be in Italian, French, and English. here's a link to the programme: www.fonctionsdusurrealisme.unito.it/programme

I've devoted very little time to planning this trip, so if anyone has any café recommendations in Turin (particularly ones where I'd be able to work for an hour or two), please do let me know.

I'm off to Italy next week (for the very first time!) to present my paper, 'Desire, Multiplicity, & Becoming – Deleuze, Derrida, & Fragmented Subjectivities in Luis Buñuel’s Cet obscur objet du désir,' at the Fonctions du surréalisme conference at the University of Turin.
