Author Evening with Writer and Screenwriter Elizabete Lukšo-Ražinska

The charity evening with writer and screenwriter Elizabete Lukšo-Ražinska, organized by the charity association Tavi draugi, has been rescheduled to November 20 at 6:30 PM. The event will take place at the association’s charity shop, located at Ģertrūdes Street 32, Riga.

In November, Tavi draugi continues the series of author evenings launched this autumn, introducing writers of various genres and their works, with all proceeds from book sales donated to charity projects supporting people in Ukraine and Latvia. The essays and stories of Latvian writer and screenwriter Elizabete Lukšo-Ražinska have been published in cultural media since 2014. She is one of the authors of the children’s book series Emī and Rū and has worked as a screenwriter on the film Postcard from Rome. Her first book for adults, Dirty Hair Day, was published this spring.

During the author evening, Elizabete Lukšo-Ražinska will talk about how she began her writing career, the inclusion of autobiographical elements in literature, the main challenges she faces in the writing process, and what motivates her the most to write. Thanks to the support of Satori, the first visitors of the event will have the opportunity to receive the author’s short story collection Dirty Hair Day in exchange for a donation.
