S2 Ep 5: Christmas Special w. Charlotte Delattre, Desperate Literature (Madrid, Spain)

Welcome back to Got Books, the podcast where we talk to booksellers from all around the world. And welcome to this short Christmas series, meant as a mini-Advent Calendar to get you in the holiday spirit. From Dec 3rd to Dec 17th, we'll be publishing an episode every Monday and Friday - that's 5 Christmas episodes for you, in which we're bringing back some of the booksellers that we know and love from past episodes, so they can tell us how they're preparing their bookshops for Christmas, what books to get for the special people in our lives, and what they like or..don't like at all about the holiday season. Today I will be chatting with Charlotte Delattre, who I am sure you remember from one of our very episodes in season 1. Charlotte is the charming co-owner of Desperate Literature in Madrid, a truly magical independent bookshop in the heart of the city, welcoming Madrilenos, travelers and unidentified walk-ins all year round. In fact, Desperate Literature is even open on Christmas Day, to provide a warm bookish space for those who may not yet have Christmas plans. I'm so glad Charlotte agreed to come back to Got Books to tell us about Christmas at Desperate Literature.
