Since 1995, under the patronage of UNESCO, we celebrate World’s Book Day on the 23rd of April. The tradition of this day is anyways older than 1995, the first connection between the 23rd of April and books was made in 1923 by a bookseller in Spain who celebrated the day in which the great writer Miguel Cervantes died. In order to celebrate this special international day, an NGO in Lefkada City organized a special event. The importance of the printed book in the European culture and civilization is without a doubt so visible and universally recognized that there’s no need for us to highlight it in this article. We want to concentrate on the present and on the importance of the book in our post-modern culture, a culture dominated by the Internet – a more fast and easy way to access information. Even so, the books have not disappeared from the framework of our society and perhaps they never will because, apart from the knowledge and information they give to the reader, they offer us some kind of magical and personal experience, and they establish a sort of invisible but very strong connection with our minds and souls. Reading takes us to different spaces and places, we have the chance to experience new feelings and ideas, to meet new situations and characters, our souls become richer, they have the chance to luxuriate and the minds generate sharper and more complex ideas about life.
If you want to support diversity in your community, and spread more money around your local neighborhood, the best thing you can do is buy your books from a local indie book store. But what if your book store doesn’t have the book you want? It’s a common problem – small book stores simply cannot afford to keep every copy of every book ever made on hand. Luckily, we are living in an era of internet, where we have the ability to order books online simply sitting in the room. Book lovers can grab all kinds of books from non-fiction to fiction, drama to action adventure, romance to mystery , religious to science etc at Shoppistan.com. Shoppistan is a hub of books . You can order any book of your choice at one click or by Calling.
