Novetats

Today, this year's Week of Books in Catalan came to an end, a gathering of authors, publishers, booksellers and indeed readers under thirsty palm trees. The bestseller, an unlikely candidate one would have thought, was @albert_nolla's fine translation of Tanizaki's In Praise Of Shadows (1933), a classic rambling that ironically echoes Japan's nationalist and supremacist discourse at the time. Come to think about it, a very modern subject, delicately spiced by discussing sanitary,, lightbulbs and the golden gleam. @angle_editorial #setmanadelllibreencatalà #publishing #editorial #literaturacatalana #gremidellibreters #enjoyreading #llibrelliureveuviva #elogedelombre #japan #literature #author #readingissexy #blackandwhite #kabuki #yugawara #shadow #tanizakijunichiro

When asked what #readdle #324 is about, it's author answers 'Reframed, the question would be: what might be the subject of a book that took its author so many hours, without him being able to provide a satisfactory explanation in a few words?' Indeed, these 94 chapters span 50 years of the author's life, sprinkled with fragmentary fiction and aphorisms, a delight for any holidaymaker with time on their hands. #readingissexy #enjoyreading #publishinghouse #vision #editorial #rafael #verlag #goodreads #bookstagram #book #riddle #author #literature #fiction #biography #passion #blackandwhitephotography #memories #adolescence #teenage #sea #culture #travels #philosophy

The #solution to #readdle #323 is not at all Catalan, but the same as for riddle 318 (bit.ly/3rhggD9)... ...namely Mémoires d'Outre-Tombe (Memoirs from Beyond The Grave, published posthumous in two volumes in 1849 and 1850, respectively) by François-René de Chateaubriand (1768-1848), first published by a special-purpose society in #Paris. And one of our picks for the summer of 2023, that is almost over. readingissexy #enjoyreading #publishinghouse #journalism #editorial #gesril #verlag #goodreads #bookstagram #book #riddle #author #literature #life #tale #facts #passion #intrigue #blackandwhitephotography #war #romance #memory #faith #politics #travels

Alexandre Tornabell and Josep Cuello Subirana on stage at the Llegim Barcelona (We Read Barcelona) poetry recital. This is the most important week of the year for Catalan language publishing, which includes grassroots events like this one. CatLit is thriving, and we'll hopefully be here next year! #lasetmana #CatLit #setmanadelllibreencatalà #poesia #poetry #llibres #books #literature #blackandwhitephotography #author #poet #publishinghouse #readingissexy #bookstagram #bookstagrammer #barcelona

Admittedly, one needs a special talent to coin phrases for eternity. Other than have us admire the lyricism and depth of Lacouture's line, this billboard reminds us of @qmonzo making fun of the distinction between 'journalists' and 'writers'. Which comes to show that he has a point. #philosophy #rugby #poetry #rugbyworldcup #france2023 #allezlesbleus #usap #rugbyworldcupfrance2023 #blackandwhitephotography #XVdeFrance #threebillboardsoutsideebbingmissouri #quimmonzo #billboard

Aren't we all playing for love? So the @museoprado longtime Head of institutional relations tells us in her conference 'Temple Or Market: Two Souls Of A Kingdom' on the role of museums in the XXI century. She quotes @laurencedescars, who wants not just her @museelouvre but museums generally to be 'the sounding board of society', yet dreads the prospect of museums full of copies in #China. Should we not ask what is the social role of a copy in the Chinese culture of #Fortschöpfung, and indeed in Western culture, decades after Benjamin and Schwartz? #art #philosophy #original #copy #copyright #artwork #museum #society #digitalart #artpost #blackandwhitephotography #walterbenjamin #instart #reproductability #womenempowerment #theroleofart #enlightenment #playingforlove #market #poetsociety #merchandise #elespolon #comillas #conference

For Sant Jordi’s Day, the Spanish edition of “Fly Trap”

April 23rd, Saint George, is wholesomely devoted to books in Catalonia. There are book stalls and rose salesmen everywhere. This year, you will find the first ever Spanish edition of a book by Fredrik Sjöberg, “Fly Trap”, along with the Catalan edition, which we published last year. We are proud [...]
