The Trouble with Being Born: A Book Club Conversation on Emil Cioran

Readers discuss Emil Cioran’s book in an informal, participatory book-club evening introduced by Ioana Dumitrescu.

Organised by the Romanian Cultural Institute with Epilogue, this discussion invites attendees to read The Trouble with Being Born beforehand and share questions, passages and interpretations. Ioana Dumitrescu opens with a short introduction to Cioran’s life and work, followed by discussion with the audience. The page says no expertise in Cioran or philosophy is required. The event is open to readers from all communities. Spaces are limited: RSVP in advance and book only if you expect to attend. The book is a starting point for discussion rather than a live author appearance.
