What is being presented
«Estiu del 37» is a novel by José A. López that reconstructs the love story between Julia and Arturo, two characters who take refuge in Xiva during the Spanish Civil War. The plot revolves around a camera with which they immortalise their last summer together, blending fiction and historical memory. The presentation will explore the book’s central themes: love in times of conflict, flight, and the search for fleeting happiness.
Who is taking part
The author, José A. López, will be joined by Toni Mejías, a figure linked to the event according to sources. Mejías’s exact role—whether moderating, contributing, or collaborating in the reading—is not specified, but his presence adds an extra dimension to the event, beyond a standard book presentation. La Repartidora, a social and cultural space in Benimaclet, hosts the event as part of its literary programming.
Format and access
The presentation follows La Repartidora’s usual format for author events: an open talk or reading with no prior registration or entry fee. The venue, known for its community-focused approach and schedule of debates and workshops, prioritises direct dialogue between speakers and attendees. While it is not confirmed whether there will be book signings or sales on-site, such activities are common at this type of event.
