This is the story of two friends of over forty years who, after a lifetime dedicated to the same profession, have decided to join forces. Each will continue her work with the same spirit as before, but they will begin to share projects, ideas, and analyses to address the current situation, which bears little resemblance to when they started. Times are tough for neighborhood bookstores, and Quart Creixent (Palma) and La 22 (Girona) know this all too well. Therefore, with the support of Abacus, these two historic establishments have formed an alliance that seeks to strengthen them and, above all, preserve them as they are.

Quart Creixent officially launched its participation in the project supporting independent bookstores, spearheaded by Abacus and La22 of Girona, this Thursday. The event, held at the bookstore, drew around one hundred people and highlighted the central role of independent bookstores in the cultural life of the island and the country. The initiative had been previously announced and was officially presented to the community this Thursday.
