OTC Book Club 📚
​The first meeting of OTC book club! 📖📚
​All of us who enjoy living the lives of others will group together to share our experience of the book "Marina" by Carlos Ruiz Zafón
​About Marina:
​Marina is a young adult fiction novel by Spanish author Carlos Ruiz Zafón. It was published in 1999 by the publishing house Edebé and reprinted in February 2017 with a total of approximately thirteen editions. Perhaps, Marina is the most indefinable and impossible novel to be categorised among the books by Carlos Ruiz Zafón. And, according to the writer's words, probably it is the most personal of his works.
​Marina is a supernatural mystery history that takes place in Barcelona. The protagonists find many trails, explore abandoned mansions and gardens, get anonymous papers, and conduct interviews. Most importantly, they hear confessions from minor characters, one of Zafon's favourite tools to "unclog" the plot. The novel looks into self-investigation, just Bildungsroman, in the bloom of love and its difficult managing, and to melancholy caused by faithfulness. The Guardian called Zafón's narrative style "simply beautiful".
​The activity:
​We'll talk about what we liked, disliked, and what we loved from the book. All while enjoying some delicious pica-pica.
​Everyone coming will bring something to bite, and that way we can focus only on the discussion & having a good time.
​The list for the snacks and drinks will be on the group chat, so we don't repeat ourselves :)
​Your Host Manu:

​Manu
