El Bilingual Club

What’s more social in a bookstore-bar-venue than a book club? You read at home, you meet once a month sharing your experience over some drinks, and sometimes, you even get the chance know and chat with the authors you have read!

El Club Bilingüe meets the second Thursday of the month. Y como su nombre bien lo dice, las lecturas se hacen en inglés y español. The current reading is La Tribu, by Cuban writer Carlos Manuel Álvarez.

“Teeming with life and compulsively readable, the pieces gathered together in The Tribe aggregate into an extraordinary mosaic of Cuba today. Carlos Manuel Álvarez, one of the most exciting young writers in Latin America, employs the crónica form—a genre unique to Latin American writing that blends reportage, narrative nonfiction, and novelistic techniques—to illuminate a particularly turbulent period in Cuban history”
