The Laie bookshop hosts the presentation of The Darkening Age (published in Spanish by Taurus and under the name La edad de la penumbra), by British classicist and journalist Catherine Nixey. Not without controversy, the book recounts the destruction of the Classical World (the destruction of works and temples, the persecution of people...) by the religious fanaticism of the first Christianity. The author will talk about the thesis and discoveries of the book with José Enrique Ruiz-Domènec and Manel Manchón.
