Yes, it is time again, our 3rd year… to commemorate Shakespeare’s death with an added twist…a discount and a flower…Perfect!!
Every year on April 23rd, Barcelona erupts in a celebration of chivalry and romance, Book & Lover’s Day. It all began in the Middle Ages with an annual Festival of Roses to honor St. George, Patron Saint of Catalonia, who as a brave and Roman soldier allegedly slew a dragon about to devour a beautiful young princess. According to legend, a rosebush sprouted from the blood of the dragon and the soldier plucked its most perfect blossoms to give to the princess as a remembrance. In 1923, the Rose Festival merged with International Book Day, established to celebrate the lives of Miguel de Cervantes, author of Don Quixote, a founding classic of Western Literature, and William Shakespeare, both of whom died on April 23rd in 1616. Now, bookstalls and flower stands sprout up along the Rambla, a two-mile stretch connecting the city with the Mediterranean Sea. Thousands of Barcelonans crowd the streets to enjoy a festive atmosphere of readings, music, literature, and dance.
An Open Book LLC is delighted to honor this springtime celebration of culture, beauty, literature, and love. Stop by the store on Book & Lover’s Day to receive 20% off the book of your choice. Complimentary flowers will be available with the purchase of any book, from Cottonwood Florist….while supplies last.
