"A river of books in Piazza Cavallotti" is the title of the review organized from 29 June to 5 August in Piazza Cavallotti by the independent publishing house of Pisa and the Erasmus bookshop and sponsored by the Municipality of Pisa. For six weeks outdoors every evening on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday (and in one week also on Friday) books will be presented mostly by authors who live in our city. Reading the book that has often accompanied us during the long months of closure due to the health emergency is now proposed precisely to start again with moments of sociability and meetings in the presence.

Almost all books published in recent months, and mostly by authors living in Pisa, of fiction, poetry, plays and non-fiction (in particular current affairs and art) will be presented.

The participating publishing houses are Astarte edizioni, Carmignani Editrice, Della Porta Editori, dreamBOOK edizioni, Edizioni ETS, Felici Editore, Mds Editore, Marchetti Editore, Pacini Editore.
