Arkadia Commercial Centre in Victoria Gozo will be hosting a book signing session of the brand new Maltese publication ‘Ghetiebi Mikula.’ The book was released nationwide on the 18th of April 2013.
The book is a collection of stories and poems written by upcoming local writers. Stories include different genres from horror to science fiction to children’s tales. Poems include religious, natural science and historical themed thoughts and reflections, among others.
The book, co-edited by Joseph Sultana (author of Misteru Ark-Anum) and Kit Azzoppardi (editor of Skariggi), brings together several authors from different backgrounds in order to combine their talents in support of ‘All For One & One For All.’
Joseph Sultana is a 31-year old author from Kercem, Gozo. He works in the offices of Arkadia. Sultana’s hobbies are reading, long walks in the countryside, films, swimming and all types of adventures that he may encounter. He’s also the author of the popular Maltese series Misteru Ark-Anum.
Kit Azzopardi (1991) studied Maltese at the University of Malta and is one of the winners from the Euro-Mediterranean region in the A Sea of Words contest (2009), as well as the Premju Francis Ebejer (2010, 2011), and Il-Konkors Nazzjonali tal-Poezija (2011). In his first year at the University, he started Versatili, a literary group of students.
He represented Malta in Biennial of Young Artists (Rome, 2011) and is a co-editor of Sekwenzi ta’ Tluq (Inizjamed, 2010) and of Skariggi (Versatili u Edizzjoni Skarta, 2012). Kit is currently serving as the President of The Writers Club and is coordinating several courses of creative writing.
All proceeds from ‘Ghetiebi Mikula’ will be donated to Angela House in Gwardamangia. Angela House is a school run by nuns who help children facing social difficulties.
The book signing is taking place at Arkadia Commercial Centre on Saturday, the 4th of May, at 10-30am.
