Bilbao will host this Thursday, October 6, the 17th edition of the Uninterrupted Reading of Classics organized by the Euskaltegi Bilbo Zaharra and which this year will have as its protagonist the novel “Bilbao-New York-Bilbao”, by Kirmen Uribe.
The initiative will take place at the Arriaga theater from 8:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m., and Kirmen Uribe himself will be in charge of starting the reading. After reading the first lines of this work, which was published in 2008, around 200 people will take turns uninterruptedly throughout the morning before the microphone placed in the theater’s foyer.
As usual, representatives from all areas of Basque society will take part in the initiative, both cultural and social agents, such as students and teachers, representatives of different institutions, associations and unions, etc.
