The Brazilian will travel to the United Arab Emirates at the invitation of a group of expatriates who share the same nationality as the writer. Classes will occur from October 24 to 28, in person, in the emirate. <em>Pictured above, the writer on a photo by Ag\u00eancia Rif, who represents her in Brazil<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>Socorro Acioli is also a journalist and holds a Ph.D. in Literature Studies from the Fluminense Federal University (UFF). Solely among children\u2019s works, she has published 16 books. Acioli was chosen to run the workshop by Veronika Topic Eleut\u00e9rio, who is also a writer and founder of the Dubrasil Book Club. \u201cWe read Socorro\u2019s work in our club in 2016. She is known for the book \u2018The Head of the Saint\u2019 [A Cabe\u00e7a do Santo], but the vast majority of her literature is for children. She has published several children\u2019s works,\u201d explained Eleut\u00e9rio. Since 2015, the club has brought together Brazilian literature lovers who live in Dubai.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><em>Read also: <\/em><a href=\"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/book-club-and-library-bring-brazilians-together-in-dubai\/\">Book club and library bring Brazilians together in Dubai<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The workshop is aimed at Brazilian women who have already published or want to start writing their works. \u201cIt was a very personal invitation [I made to Socorro] because I found out we have female writers here. And they are writers with totally different target audiences,\u201d said Eleut\u00e9rio.<\/p>\n<p>The authors are now meeting in a group apart from the Dubrasil Book Club itself. Between them, the focus is to discuss literary creation itself. \u201cWhen I was told there was a writer, <a href=\"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/de-dubai-brasileira-faz-prosa-sobre-os-jardins-e-a-lua\/\">Wiana [Kell<\/a>], I was very interested and contacted her, who spoke of someone else who wrote a textbook. We invited each other and built up this group. Literature brought us together. All of us were writing, each in our own way; it was another way to bring people together. Books build bridges,\u201d concluded Eleut\u00e9rio.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Quick facts:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Literary Workshop with Socorro Acioli<\/p>\n<p>October 24 to 28<\/p>\n<p>Dubai<\/p>\n<p>Learn more: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/clube_literario_dubrasil\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Clube Liter\u00e1rio Dubrasil [Dubrasil Book Club] Instagram<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Translated by El\u00fasio Brasileiro<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>During five days of classes, author Socorro Acioli will lecture for a group of Brazilian women living in Dubai.
