Flica

Writer, if it corresponds to a certain standard cliché, does not like to go to parties, is terrified of noise, movement, agitation, that bunch of people with the control of reason turned off.

So why were you inventing a literary party? Wouldn't that be two excluding things, party and literature? It doesn't matter anymore why; invented, it is done, will see the writers liked the party more than suspected. Going to see a literary party is not quite a party or has little to do with the definition of common sense party. Once the paradox was resolved, literary parties multiplied and began to attract more audiences than many other parties, drenched in heavy drink and heavy decibels.

In Cachoeira, we solve the paradox by uniting the two. There are the tables, the conversations between the authors, the authors with the mediators and the public, the readers, and then one can fall into the spree, the writers themselves strolling through the attractions we offer on the streets and stages of the city, celebrating with whomever else. Please celebrate, let go.

Those who have experienced the previous seven editions of Flica have seen, heard and felt unexpected emotions, have lived closely with distinguished intellectuals from other lands and nations, at the same time with an enthusiastic population, involved in the festival and the purpose of welcoming everyone.

Not only have other editions become inevitable, a common yearning for directors, residents of Cachoeira, a public that has seen near or far, through the press and the internet, but it is also sacrament: as any self-respecting party, Flica will be annual, without year to end, perhaps eternal.

Who gives the party, literally, because they do not charge for access to the discussion tables, are our supporters and sponsors. Who likes you, guest of honor for us to check that, contrary to the cliché published, writer really likes is party, hence the success of literary parties, hence the exceptional charm of the literary party in Cachoeira, city born to house the most lively event of its kind.
