Reading party

The Bormio Library is pleased to invite you to a new event dedicated to free reading.

Do you not know what it is about?

The inspiration came from a trend across the ocean, which is now spreading all over the world and originated about a couple of years ago from the idea of four twenty-somethings in New York who decided to gather in an apartment in Brooklyn, to read and discuss what they had read. This is how the so-called Reading Parties were born: silent gatherings lasting a couple of hours dedicated to reading together. The rules are quite few: a comfortable and quiet environment, good lighting, smartphones off, and good company of book lovers.

So bring your favorite book, a magazine, the novel you are reading, or even the title that you just cannot tackle alone due to lack of time and concentration. Don't have anything to read? No problem, you can borrow something from the selected titles we will offer for the occasion before settling down and letting yourself be carried away by reading.
At the conclusion of the individual reading phase, there will be a moment of dialogue and listening: each participant can freely choose to share their impressions of their reading, read an important passage they want to share with others, or simply listen.

Don't forget to bring a glass or a cup to sip something in our company!
