Ledig House is home to one of the nation\u2019s only international writers’ residencies. Every year, two dozen critically acclaimed writers and translators from around the world visit the Ledig House, where they work on their individual projects and learn from their fellow writers. And for the past three years, we\u2019ve been privileged to have some of their residents visit Rochester and read from their work.<\/p>\n

This year\u2019s scheduled guests include: Anna Mioni (Italy), translator of more than fifty novels and works of non-ficiton; Francesc Ser\u00e9s (Catalonia), author of the trilogy On Manure and Marble<\/em> and recipient of the National Prize for Literature; Chika Unigwe (Nigeria\/Belgium), a former Rockefeller Foundation Fellow and author of On Black Sisters Street<\/em>; and Mads Mygind (Denmark), author of several poetry collections and the founder of the Verbale Pupiller poetry festival.<\/p>\n
