Synopsis "Librerías (in Spanish)"

¿Cuál es el significado de las librerías en el imaginario colectivo? ¿Cuál es su papel en la historia de las ideas y de las letras? En este brillante y ameno ensayo, Jorge Carrión crea una posible cronología del desarrollo de las librerías y de su representación artística. Cómo se transformaron en mitos culturales, en centros de tertulia o en atalayas de resistencia política. La Strand de Nueva York, las parisinas Shakespeare and Company y La Hune, la Librairie des Colonnes de Tánger, Bertrand y Ler Devagar en Lisboa, Stanfords en Londres, El Virrey en Lima, Lello en Oporto, La Central y Laie en Barcelona, la Librería de Ávila y Eterna Cadencia de Buenos Aires, Antonio Machado en Madrid, City Lights y Green Apple Books en San Francisco, las librerías del Fondo de Cultura Económica en Ciudad de México o Bogotá... Esas y muchísimas otras librerías supervivientes desfilan en estas páginas, junto con otras que fueron emblemáticas y luego desaparecieron, como la londinense Temple of the Muses, la Librería de los Escritores de Moscú, la R. Viñas & Co. de Barranquilla o la parisina Maison des Amis des Livres. Un mundo fascinante, pero también crepuscular, cuya topografía compartimos todos los amantes de los libros.
