El próximo jueves 26 de febrero, Dani Zelko presentará Un texto camino. El puente espejo. Ritualizar el tartamudeo en La Malinche, en Barcelona. Participará del diálogo y de la presentación Diego Falconi, investigador y ensayista ecuatoriano. El libro, de Caístulo y Zelko, forma parte de la serie Pluriversos de la editorial, dirigida por Natalia Brizuela. \*\*\* Un texto camino. El puente espejo. Ritualizar el tartamudeo, de Caístulo y Zelko, es un libro que parte de una práctica de escucha y escritura que Dani Zelko impulsa, en distintas comunidades, hace más de diez años. Un experimento a través del cual las voces de distintas personas son transcriptas a mano, corregidas colectivamente, impresas, leídas en voz alta en actos públicos y distribuidas en sus territorios específicos. Dani Zelko y Caístulo se conocieron en territorio wichí, en la triple frontera entre Argentina, Bolivia y Paraguay. Caístulo es cacique de una comunidad wichí, vive en el norte argentino. En 2025, fundó en su comunidad una pequeña escuela donde mujeres adultas están aprendiendo a leer y escribir. Dani Zelko nació en Buenos Aires. Es artista, poeta, editor y músico. El resultado del encuentro entre Caístulo y Zelko fue: Un texto camino, que es la transcripción de lo que las madres le transmitían a Caístulo. Ahora lo reeditamos junto con los dos nuevos títulos que le siguen: El puente espejo y Ritualizar el tartamudeo.

Hi and welcome to our next Socrates Café philosophy meetup! Do you have a hunger for deeper understanding of yourself and the world? Do you value deep, honest and respectful dialogue? If yes, then this meetup will be very interesting for you. • WHAT IS A MEETUP ABOUT? At every meetup we have a discussion using Socratic method: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Socratic_method We ask, answer and discuss questions and ideas to stimulate critical thinking and to widen our perspectives with new concepts and thoughts. The main purpose of these meetups is to enrich ourselves with the perspectives of others, not to convince others about our own perspectives. Our meetups are about our own philosophies of life and not necessarily what the great philosophers and academics have said or written. It is not a debating club or a platform for proselytizing. Instead, we place the emphasis on questioning, open mindedness and challenging our own assumptions while listening to and respecting the views shared by others. A Socrates Café meetup is considered a success when participants leave a discussion with many more questions than they had at the beginning. • WHAT TOPIC IS DISCUSSED AT THE MEETUP? Participants suggest topics at the beginning of each meeting. We then vote and choose that event's most popular topic for discussion. No academic training in philosophy necessary; just enthusiasm for exchanging ideas and points of view. Some examples of subjects chosen on previous meetups: * What ideals are worth dying for? * Why are we never satisfied? * Why is it that human beings know that the society is going wrong, leaders are well informed about it and things continue as is? * Is identity necessary? * How can it be that people in democratic societies are so obsessed with power? (Desire to be different, better, stronger than others) * What is friendship? • WHO PARTICIPATES AT THIS MEETUP? Anybody is more than welcome to join our meetups. Our events gather people from different backgrounds, different cultures, while no philosophical background is mandatory. Our usual participants are people that have a hunger for deeper understanding of themselves and the world. People that value deep, honest and respectful dialogue. The inspiration for Socrates Cafe originates with the book of the same name, written by the philosopher Christopher Phillips. (Socrates Cafe: A Fresh Taste of Philosophy, 2002). Phillips felt that the Socratic method of dialogue and discussion should be practiced not just in academic settings, but among everyday people interested in examining deep questions together. Hundreds of Socrates Cafe groups now exist around the world.

The climate emergency will not be solved by reading books. But by coming together to read, to educate ourselves, to share what we learn with friends and family, and to take action in our corner of the world we can be a small part of the wave of change humanity desperately needs. Sound like something you want to be a part of? We’d love to have you. Join the Climate Action Book Club this month to read the activist handbook ‘Emergent Strategy’ by Adrienne Marie Brown. She calls it 'a guidebook for getting in right relationship with change, using our own nature and that of creatures beyond human as our teachers.' This event is free, but please get your copy from the wonderful English bookstore that hosts our book club meetings, Backstory. To cover Meetup fees, we also request a €1 donation per attendee. You are welcome (even encouraged) to join us even if you haven't read the book but want to hear and join the discussion about it. Feel free to bring a friend, too. Hope to see you!

Este taller está diseñado para quienes deseen profundizar en la historia contemporánea de Perú y Chile, dos países marcados por el impacto del imperialismo estadounidense, la represión política y las luchas armadas. Cada sesión se centrará en una novela distinta, utilizando su narrativa como una puerta de entrada para reflexionar críticamente sobre procesos históricos complejos, como las dictaduras latinoamericanas, las guerrillas de resistencia y las dinámicas de memoria, justicia e impunidad. También se abordarán las diversas formas de violencia que atraviesan estas historias, con especial atención a las que afectan a las mujeres, invitando a una reflexión profunda sobre los legados de estas realidades en la actualidad.🔥 Juan Escalona es Doctor en Historia Contemporánea por la Universidad de Barcelona. Cuenta además con un Máster en Historia Contemporánea y Mundo Actual por la misma universidad y es licenciado en Educación por la Universidad de Concepción (Chile).

**Join us at the Badalona Sailing Club for a hands-on sailing and navigation experience designed for both beginners and more experienced sailors.** Each meetup lasts around **2 hours** and combines practical boat handling with real navigation at sea. Together, we’ll discover the basics of sailing through simple maneuvers, sail handling, and wind awareness — learning naturally as we exchange, ask questions, and enjoy a relaxed sail along the coast. Beyond the technical aspects, this experience is also about **being at sea**. As we sail, you’ll enjoy a beautiful perspective of **Barcelona from the water**, learn how to observe the marine environment — and with a bit of luck, **dolphins sometimes join us**. These meetups are guided by **Jean**, a pr**ofessional skipper and sailing instructor**, who focuses on sharing knowledge in a relaxed, safe, and supportive atmosphere. **Prices:** **\- 35 euros for the first session** **\- 20 euros for following session** Whether you’re stepping on a sailboat for the first time or looking to refine your skills, this meetup offers a meaningful and engaging way to learn, sail, and connect.

A casual (but coordinated) coffee break to meet new friends, take a Zoom break, and get your AM caffeine fix. Stop by for a few minutes or stay the whole time. Bring a friend or wander in solo. Come for the coffee and company, or just bring a book to read while surrounded by other in-real-life, community-seeking humans. Come by every Friday, or just when you happen to be in town. Make it whatever you need it to be that week. It's not an \*event\* per se, but we hope these Friday meet-ups can become a fixture of the bookshop! Gathering spot will be in the downstairs area of the bookshop (near the Community Library). Coffee and tea are 1.50€ and can be purchased at the cash register upstairs. Find more info on our Instagram (@backstorybookshop) or website (www.backstorybookshop.com).

Welcome, readers! Our February read is **_1984 by George Orwell._** In 1984, George Orwell imagines a world where the government watches everyone, rewrites reality, and punishes even private thoughts. Winston Smith dares to question this system, believing that truth and love might still exist. His rebellion draws him into a chilling struggle against a power that knows him better than he knows himself. The novel leaves readers asking whether freedom is possible when reality itself can be controlled. Looking forward to discussing with everyone! We will meet at Zaftig Brewing Co in their event room in the back. We are welcome to bring in our own food, but **drinks must be purchased at the bar.** Happy reading! 📖

If you enjoy knitting, crocheting, working with yarn, this is the group for you. Meet new friends, bring your projects, learn from others.
We normally meet a few times a month during the week from 6-8pm. We will occasionally meet on weekends during daytime hours.

**Our March pick is *God of the Woods* by Liz Moore.** **This month’s novel is an award-winning literary mystery that blends family drama with psychological suspense. It explores women’s voices and relationships while delivering an exciting, eerie, and deeply suspenseful story. The book is 576 pages in print or 14 hours and 35 minutes on audiobook.** Early morning, August 1975: a camp counselor discovers an empty bunk. Its occupant, Barbara Van Laar, has gone missing. Barbara isn’t just any thirteen-year-old: she’s the daughter of the family that owns the summer camp and employs most of the region’s residents. And this isn’t the first time a Van Laar child has disappeared. Barbara’s older brother similarly vanished fourteen years ago, never to be found. As a panicked search begins, a thrilling drama unfolds. Chasing down the layered secrets of the Van Laar family and the blue-collar community working in its shadow, Moore’s multi-threaded story invites readers into a rich and gripping dynasty of secrets and second chances. It is Liz Moore’s most ambitious and wide-reaching novel yet.
