Join us for the monthly Highlight Bookclub at Vastela Books, a curated literary discussion series centered around the bookstore’s featured monthly selection.

Each month, bookstore owner Ana chooses one newly published book to spotlight — the only non-secondhand title sold at Vastela during that month. Two months later, readers are invited back to discuss the book together in an open and welcoming community conversation.

For this edition of the Highlight Bookclub, we will discuss The Book of Chameleons by José Eduardo Agualusa, the acclaimed Angolan novel blending memory, identity, politics, and magical realism into a richly imaginative narrative.

This literary event in Zurich is perfect for readers interested in contemporary international fiction, translated literature, independent bookstores, and thoughtful book discussions in an intimate setting.

Whether you finished the book cover to cover or simply want to listen and join the conversation, all are welcome.
