‘Sopot by the Book’ is a literary festival which takes place in one of the most beautiful cities on the Baltic coast. It is designed to promote literature and readership.
The festival features numerous 'Meet the author' sessions, debates, workshops, screenings of films inspired by literature, book fairs, concert, as well as an outdoor reading room and events where literature comes into contact with other fields of art.
The 6th edition was devoted to Spanish literature. The Spanish writers who took part represented different styles and genres, but they all shared a common language, Spanish.
AC/E supported the following events in the programme:
The ‘Grumpy Book’ workshop for young people conducted by Luci Gutiérrez, under whose watchful eye the participants spent several hours creating illustrations for The Grumpy Book.
‘Fortunately we all hate many things, there are others we love, but talking about the ones we hate can be more fun. Each participant will be invited to illustrate something he/she hates. We will put together a collective book with all the illustrations. A book that, if it were created by one author, would be a really grumpy one.’
