The Camariñas Lace Fair of the Provincial Council of A Coruña continues to expand its cultural offer. In this XXXII edition, which will begin next Wednesday, April 5, the most important lace event in the world will feature three literary presentations linked to Galicia and the sea. These are publications by the authors Ainhoa Conde and Ana de las Heras, in addition to that of the writer Alfonso de Sas.
The first of these presentations will be on Thursday, April 6, at 12:00 p.m. Inside the parade hall, Ainhoa Conde will talk about her book 'Devotees of Destiny. Beyond the Villain'. It is a work of poetry that involves an internal reflection and feelings for Galicia and the ocean. The fragments, based almost entirely on the author's experiences, reflect 66 stories of love, discouragement, struggle, sacrifice, joy and longing. Conde, born in Cee, combines her work as a poet with that of a maritime safety inspector.
Meanwhile, on Friday, April 7, at 12:00, it will be the turn of Ana de las Heras and her book 'Travesías del sentir'. In this volume, the writer offers a set of short stories full of humor, magic and transformation that narrate everyday life in a simple way thanks to focusing on the small details that make life great. Born in Madrid and living in Oleiros, De las Heras is an industrial engineer as well as an author.
Finally, on Saturday 8 April, Alfonso de Sas will present 'El Cementerio de Los Ingleses'. Starting at 12:00, the author from Ourense will talk about a fictional book that is inspired by the shipwreck of the HMS Serpent off the coast of Camariñas in 1890, which is why the mythical cemetery of the same name was built. The work explores the relationship that arises as a result of the tragedy between the residents of the place and the members of the British Empire. De Sas, born in Ourense, studied Law and worked in International Trade before deciding, now retired, to publish his first work.
These three literary presentations are part of a long and varied program that makes up the XXXII edition of the Mostra do Encaixe and will fill Camariñas with activity for five days.
