The teenage book club has been launched for young Russians living in Barcelona. Children and adolescents over 12 are invited to take part in it. The club will operate at the RusKniga store, according to the store's Facebook page.

The first meeting is scheduled for November 14. Participants will discuss their book preferences and choose a book for discussion at the next meeting.

The RusKniga store of Russian books opened in Barcelona a month ago. It offers books in Russian and languages ​​of peoples from the countries of the former Soviet Union for children and adults. The owner of the store, Elena, moved to Spain from Russia. The idea of ​​opening a store came to her after she faced difficulties in purchasing Russian children's books in Spain.

The project started with 20 books; now, there are over 3,000 different titles, which can be delivered across Spain, Portugal and Andorra.

Italian entrepreneur Marco Maggi's book, "Russian to the Bone," is now accessible for purchase in Italy and is scheduled for release in Russia in the upcoming months. In the book, Marco recounts his personal odyssey, narrating each stage of his life as a foreigner in Russia—starting from the initial fascination to the process of cultural assimilation, venturing into business, fostering authentic friendships, and ultimately, reaching a deep sense of identifying as a Russian at his very core.
