Bookseller Sandra Álvarez Ramos.

“Dedicating oneself to the world of books is a vocation of service to society. My role has been to guide because the art of selling texts requires knowing what kind of literature each reader is looking for”. This is how Sandra Álvarez Ramos sums up her arrival to the profession, back in 2000 when she joined -from “Amancio”- the network of institutions belonging to the Provincial Center of Books and Literature.

Homage to Pablo Armando Fernández in his 95th birthday.

An accomplice and touching meeting took place as part of the tributes paid by Las Tunas to Pablo Armando Fernandez's 95th birthday. The atmosphere combined music, painting, and lyrics, a blessed broth for anecdotes and nostalgia to emerge.

Las Tunas poet Maritza Batista

To converse with Maritza Batista is to find oneself in front of a woman with a limpid soul, eloquent, exquisite diction, and a tender gaze that crosses all thresholds. I have fond memories of her, such as when I took my first steps in literature, more than 15 years ago. Together with the unforgettable Antonio Gutiérrez, who was her husband until his death and also my teacher at the Guillermo Vidal literary workshop, she lent me books and advised me on how best to follow the fascinating paths of the word.
