Free entry until capacity. Event in Spanish.
The event will be attended by the authors. They present Noor Ammarty, tangerine writer and Karim Hauser, coordinator of Cultura de Casa Árabe.
‘Tangerine cocktails, from yesterday and today, by Alberto Gómez Font
“In the glass of the silver shaker he put three boneless dates, four or five leaves of mint and the juice of a lemon and a half; he crushed the ingredients with the flat part of the mixing spoon and put a lot of ice to then add three glasses of whiskey. After vigorously shaking the shaker well, he served the mixture in ice-cold cocktail glasses, into which he had previously introduced a date, this time with bone, and adorned them with a mint leaf.”
This edition brings together the 22 short stories from the previous edition and 12 new ones that are currently running. A Tangier full of spies, murderers and smugglers in unemployment, and that recovers the now disappeared house Villa Eugenia.

‘Josephine’, by Luis Salvago
When Josephine Perkins wakes up one morning after a restless sleep, she finds herself in bed with a stranger. She thinks that the dream betrays her, that perhaps it has consumed something which produces strange hallucinations. However, he feels the warmth of that body and the flow of his breath. For a moment she thinks that that is not her house and it is she who has been lying in the bed of a stranger. But when he gets up, check that he behaves as if they knew each other forever. Josephine, unable to understand what is happening, struggles to reconstruct her past. However, she feels that something does not fit. The places he remembers no longer exist: the Galeries Lafayette, the cinema Alcazar and that couturier who arranged his clothes are now closed.
