Tips for reading in a suspended time

Suspended time. This is the definition that almost everyone gives to these strange and uncertain days. And that's right, a suspended time from which we will necessarily all come out a little different, accompanied by a wealth of new awareness concerning our fragility, but also our strength.

There are those who are living these days with a veil of fear and those who see great opportunities. We, with a lot of realism, place ourselves in the middle and right from being in the middle of something greater than us that we want to start moving, while remaining still in our homes. While everything around us is still, continuing to feed the mind, keep us company with readings, some series on TV, some online courses and a lot of smart woking, is essential. 

We know that in front of everyone there will necessarily be a period of difficulty, which we hope as short as possible. We also know that in difficulties it is necessary to concentrate one's efforts and possibilities on services and essential things.

Despite what is to come, the only awareness we have at the moment is that the culture will be deeply affected by all this and will be supported with all our strength, because it will be precisely this that will help us rebuild a more equitable community and we hope it is ready to manage situations. like this. 

For this reason we have decided to recommend you a list of titles that are helping us to distract us these days. We know that it is a small thing, but it is with the sum of many small things that we can all start together.

Before leaving you to our 10 reading tips in no particular order, we remind you that you can write or call us as many times as you want, even if just to have a chat and to tell us how you are spending this period. In short, overwhelm us with messages, photos and phone calls and we will be delighted to answer you, share them and spend some time virtually with you. 

We hug you, one by one.
