Médiathèque intercommunale d'Oppède, 256 Rue des Poulivets, 84580, Oppède
Friday 20 November 2026 from 6.30 pm.
On 20 November in Oppède, Rachid Benzine, writer, Islamologist and playwright, invites visitors to a sensitive encounter about literature, memory, identity and dialogue between cultures.

Rachid Benzine is a writer, Islamologist and playwright, author of many essays and novels that reach a wide audience through their humanity and depth.
His works include Ainsi parlait ma mère, Les Silences des pères and L’Homme qui lisait des livres.
This encounter will be an opportunity to discuss his literary world, his favourite themes and his perspective on the links between cultures.
Rachid Benzine’s texts explore family ties, heritage and what is sometimes passed on through silence.
His works give an important place to memories, traces of the past and the stories that shape identity.
His work invites us to think about encounters, listening and possible bridges between stories, languages and cultures.
This encounter creates a bridge with the exhibition Éclats de vie ou quand la couleur résiste.
It offers a sensitive conversation between literature and photography, two forms of expression that reveal lives, wounds, silences and resistance.
An event that extends the questions raised by images through the words of an author committed to deeply human writing.
