About this Event
On Saint Jordi’s Day in Catalonia, people exchange books and roses. This day was adopted as “World Book Day” by Spain and commemorates the death of Miguel de Cervantes, author of Don Quijote, and William Shakespeare.
Beat the coronavirus and join this tradition by extracting one book from the UM European Union Center collection https://eucenter.as.miami.edu/publications/books/index.html
Imagine that you receive a virtual rose in hand. Walk the streets of Barcelona. Be a Catalan for a day and exchange books and roses:
