Dóra Kiss and Sonia Zoran come together in a moderated conversation that traces memory, migration and the search for belonging through literature. Drawing on their novels En beaux caractères and La Fille de sel, the two authors reflect on immigration, cultural dislocation and the desire to reconnect with family roots. Their personal journeys — one returning to Hungary with her elderly father, the other travelling through Dalmatia after her father’s death — open a nuanced discussion on origins, traces and inner anchor points.
