I attended, on 16 day, the meeting with Javier Reverte at the Municipal Library. Very entertaining and interesting; I knew, for a long time, both the travel books of this author and his novels, although I admit that I did not know his face as a poet. In fact, I have to thank Mr. Reverte for dedicating three of his travel books that I had at home and that I liked very much: The Dream of Africa, Heart of Ulysses and The River of Desolation. A success this cultural programming.
