La Lata Peinada is a bookshop specialising in Latin American literature, tucked away in the Raval. Step inside and shelves brim with fiction, poetry and essays from independent publishers. Books are arranged like stories waiting to be discovered, ranging from established authors to emerging voices. Here, conversation arises naturally – about a book, a country or a shared story. It is a space where reading becomes both an act of travelling and a form of resistance.

This is good to know

Amid the corridors, debates and presentations on the latest publishing trends can be heard. Here, literature is not only read – it is lived, shared and discussed.
