Adult book club, Gezurra berdaderoa, Biblioteca de Mendaro

Biblioteca de Mendaro

On Thursday 26 November 2026 at 17:30 the Biblioteca de Mendaro hosts a book club for adults led by Asier Serrano, held at the municipal library on Herriko Enparantza. At this session the group discusses Gezurra berdaderoa by Bertol Arrieta. The listing presents the club as a series of three meetings: on 29 October 2026 the book was Haize lekuak by Amaia Telleria, on 26 November the book is Gezurra berdaderoa, and on 17 December the group turns to Dena zulo bera zen by Eider Rodríguez. The language of the club is Basque. The session runs from 17:30 to 18:30. The listing does not give a price. A reading group is easy to join alone, since everyone has read the same book and the conversation starts from the page, so newcomers have something to say from the first minute. «Club de Lectura para personas Adultas dinamizado por Asier Serrano» Starts 17:30, ends about 18:30.

Gararock Fest: GAILU in concert at San Agustin Kulturgunea, Mendaro

San Agustin Kulturgunea

The Gararock Fest brings GAILU to the San Agustin cultural centre on the village square of Mendaro, a small town in the Deba valley of Gipuzkoa. The band gathers veterans of Basque groups such as BAP!!, Inoren Ero Ni, Anari and Negu Gorriak, and from a bare bass-and-drums base lets punk, hardcore, old-school hip hop, dub poetry, spoken word and electronic music pour out. Their fourth album came out in 2025 and a new bassist joined in 2026. The late Friday gig is free. «GARAROCK FEST 2026: GAILU» Starts 22:00, ends about 23:30.

First time?

How to join a book club alone

  1. Check the book, then relax. Many groups welcome people who have not finished it — the official page says if reading ahead matters.
  2. Arrive five minutes early and tell the host it is your first time; they will introduce you.
  3. Say one thing — a line you liked or a question. That is enough for a first evening.
  4. Nothing that suits you? Host a silent reading night: 60 minutes silent, 15 minutes talk, phones away, any book, finish at a café.
