Description

Brussels Umbrellas tells about important moments in the lives of six very different people unfolded in Brussels. The stories are written in English, French, Spanish and German following the languages their writers created them in.
They may sometimes meet in this city, if only for a glimpse, a passing moment, and sometimes they may share part of the road.

Do you want to know about a refugee boy that landed in the city by accident? About a young man from Syria who is tormented by what is happening in his homeland? Are you interested in a peculiar old lady who is a native Bruxelloise? Are you attracted to follow a Gypsy girl as she makes her way in a maze of unknown streets, languages and people? Would you like to be touched by the eyes of a poet who interprets the many faces of Brussels? Or by the awkward and philosophical mind of a cartoon eurocrat?
Well, find your language, your character, your story, or more of them, and start to discover.
Brussels is full of surprises, so are the stories.
