Encuentro con Luis González. Un laberinto propio

On the venue's site

How do the books and experiences we live through transform us? In Un laberinto propio (Siruela, 2026), Luis González traverses the literature, music and landscapes that have shaped his way of understanding the world and the role of reading in our lives. On these questions he will converse with journalist Carlos G.-Hirschfeld in our auditorium.

With a close, approachable style, and in the company of artists as diverse as Dickens, Woolf, Austen, Vargas Llosa, Zambrano, Borges, Beethoven or Schubert, among others, Luis González develops in this itinerary his conviction about the benefits of reading as "a fundamental human technology", since it combines effort and pleasure, trains creativity, strengthens analytical thinking and also health.

In each chapter he traces unexpected connections that not only invite readers to discover books and key data about the impact of reading, but also to get to know an entertaining collection of anecdotes about prominent personalities in the literary world.
