  1. Anna Dot ha elaborado la biografía del río Ter. ¿Cómo se narra la vida de un ser milenario? Para hacerlo hay que mirar de cerca a lo que existe en el río: el guijarro, los insectos, la flora o las historias que ha acarreado en su cauce.

  2. "The central #London #bookshop at the centre of controversy last month after selling copies of #AdolfHitler’s #MeinKampf has now also been found to be selling a #book that accuses #Jews of possessing “evil qualities” and reproduces excerpts from the #Protocols of the #EldersofZion, the JC can reveal.

    #Aafaq #Bookstore in #Westminster has been found to be selling copies of So That We Do Not Forget: #Jewish Crimes - #Zionist Resentment, an #Arabic-language #book dedicated to “every martyr whose blood was shed on the land of #Palestine, #Jerusalem, and #AlAqsa”.

    The book’s first chapter describes Jews as a “people who committed great sins and possess evil qualities, thus deserving the wrath of [God]. God Almighty has mentioned their characteristics and actions in the Holy #Quran, and how He punished them, yet they did not learn a lesson. Therefore, we must know their history so that we may be wary of them… God’s victory for the believers over the Jews is inevitable.”

  3. First #book of the year, and very likely to be my favourite book of the year (yes, it was released last year) - Service, by John Tottenham. An essential read if - a) you've ever worked in an independent #bookshop, b) you enjoy #BlackBooks, or c) you're a grumpy misanthrope with a literary background. I don't believe I've ever identified with the protagonist of a novel more than this. (I had to check the author several times just to make sure someone hadn't secretly published my diaries.) #books #Service #JohnTottenham #booksoftheyear https://www.semiotexte.com/service

  5. Only found out today about UNESCO's 'Cities of Literature' program. There are maps people! Literature Maps so you can take walking tours of bookstores/libraries/writersfestivals/historical creative sites & more around the world. Here's the one for Melbourne, Australia. cityofliterature.com.au/explor . ps: I found out about this thanks to the fab SPN Conference this weekend in Melbourne. (my bio links to blog about this if interested).
