The second session of the “Literature and Sports” reading club marked an important milestone, as it was the first one held at the Olympic and Sports Museum, strengthening the collaboration between Biblioteca Les Corts – Miquel Llongueras and the Fundació Barcelona Olímpica.
During this session, participants discussed Sabotaje olímpico by Manuel Vázquez Montalbán. The session was led by journalist and historian Toni Padilla, sparking an engaging discussion around literature and sport.
