ABOUT #READTHEWORLD

As many of you already know, at Parent(h)esis, we explore a different country every time with a curated selection of books by authors from that country, as well as books about it, spanning all genres in both Spanish and English.

Now, we want to take this exploration a step further, which is why we've launched our first book club: #readtheworld. Our goal is ambitious yet exciting: we want to discover the world together with you, exploring books and authors from corners of the planet that we may not know well or may not have read before.

Every time, we will choose a book written by an author from the featured country, available in both Spanish and English, and organize two sessions: one in each language. What's most special is that each session will be coordinated by someone from the country we’re exploring.

Are you ready to read the world with us?
