The Museo del Prado has announced that French-Moroccan author Leïla Slimani will participate in its 'Escribir el Prado' program. Slimani, who won the Prix Goncourt in 2016, will begin her residency in Madrid on April 19, 2024. During her stay, she will create an original text inspired by the museum's collections, which will be published in bilingual Spanish and English editions.
