Various figures from the world of culture and activism will come together to read aloud a selection of texts and poems by Palestinian authors, such as Mahmud Darwish, Ghassan Kanafani, Fadwa Tuqan, Elias Khoury and Asma Azaizeh, among others.

This collective reading is a further condemnation of the genocide in Gaza, while also advocating for literature and the word as a space for resistance, memory and dialogue.

The selection of texts has been curated by the Palestinian-Syrian poet, translator, writer, and journalist Mohamad Bitari, born in Damascus and currently residing in Barcelona.

Due to the high number of people who wanted to participate in the reading, all the reading slots are now full. We encourage you to come and join the audience!
