The Argençola Reading Club hosted writer Roc Casagran on April 10, who presented his novel Somiàvem una illa, winner of the Sant Jordi Prize 2024.

During the meeting, the author engaged in a dialogue with readers about the creative process of the work, from the initial idea's conception to its narrative development. The atmosphere was intimate and fostered an open exchange with attendees.
Club members showed great interest in the novel, highlighting the sensitivity with which human, family, and filial relationships are addressed throughout the protagonist's life journey.
This activity solidified the Reading Club as a space for literary conversation and reflection, reinforcing its role as a cultural dynamizer in the municipality. The event was supported by the Department of Culture of the Generalitat and the Institució de les Lletres Catalanes.
The Argençola City Council positively values citizen participation in initiatives that promote reading and cultural interest among its inhabitants.
