A book club perhaps..
As many youngsters in their early 20 -or earlier, I thought several times about having a business of my own. Not so much financially driven, more likely a desire to have a place to achieve independence and work in my beloved projects. Unlike most, not a bar. More like a combination of cultural centre, café porteño, bookstore and workshop. Pretty vague.
Since it's opening in 2012 I worked at a small boutique pizza joint. Corrientes is a beautiful restaurant in the historical exchange district of Winnipeg. Unconsciously, some part of me leaked into this project. A sixty-seat restaurant that manages to have a cozy coffee area at the back with a couple of bookshelves that pretend to reflect the literary aspect of the avenue. And of my life too.
For some reason I don't want to understand, I don't read as much anymore. Travelling and living abroad brings a sum of complications that push against the habit. Plus, I've been very lazy lately.
A joint argentinean-canadaian creation is trying to put an end to that. Is not the first time that I start or join a bookclub, but definitely the first time to start one entirely on english literature. So far, we're nothing but a bunch of expectations and procrastination. To spend an entire month finishing a book is pyrrhic victory.
Nevertheless, soon we will have some postings about the progress and discussions of this soon-to-be book club...
