The President of the Council, Catalina Cladera, and the Vice President and Minister of Culture, Heritage and Linguistic Policy, Bel Busquets, took part in the opening of the 41st edition of the Book Fair. The fair, organised by the Booksellers’ Guild of Mallorca and with the financial support of the Consell, brings together 22 bookshops in Palma and will last until the 4th of June.

The opening speech was given by Ramon Bassa, professor emeritus of Didactics of Language Skills at the UIB and author of the collection Poco a poco a poco (Little by Little).

Throughout these ten days, the fair offers an extensive programme of activities that includes presentations of new publications, signings with authors, workshops, storytelling, poetry and erotic storytelling recitals, concerts and a tribute to two leading authors of Mallorcan literature: Maria Antònia Oliver and Antoni Serra.
