Café littéraire "Harvest, Wine & Poetry"

  • Mother Foucault's Bookshop 715 Southeast Grand Avenue Portland, Oregon, 97214 United States (map)

This fall and winter, L’École Buissonnière invites you to a monthly Café Littéraire, a French conversation class rooted in literature, seasonal culture, and thoughtful exchange.
Inspired by French cafés as places of ideas, debate, and imagination, these gatherings offer a slow, intimate approach to the French language.
Each 90-minute session opens a thematic doorway through short literary texts, guided conversation, and gentle creative practices.
The focus is not performance or fluency at all costs, but presence, curiosity, and pleasure in thinking together.
Each month highlights a seasonal cultural moment in France, including traditions that shape language and collective imagination.

Harvest, Wine & Poetry
Les vendanges : terroir, ivresse et poésie
Discover the world of French vineyards through literature, poetry, and sensory language, and explore how landscape, taste, memory, and the idea of terroir have shaped French culture for centuries.
