The Bormio Library is pleased to invite you to two new events dedicated to free reading.
Do you not know what it’s about?
The inspiration came from a trend across the ocean, which is now taking hold worldwide and originated about two 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. From this, the so-called Reading Parties were born: silent gatherings lasting a couple of hours dedicated to reading in company. The rules are very few: a comfortable and quiet environment, good lighting, smartphones off, and a good company of book lovers.
So bring along your favorite book, a magazine, the novel you are currently reading, or even the title that you just can’t tackle alone due to lack of time and concentration. Don’t have anything to read? No problem, you can borrow something from the selected bibliography that 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 for 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!
