No Sun and quite cold: the weather decided I should be in an armchair with a blanket, reading. The book is "Poirot: the greatest detective in the world" by Mark Aldridge (check my previous post if you want to see the cover). Two chapters to finishing it.
The #book is protected by a crochet cover I made myself. Wasn't sure, but it works really well. It was quite simple: 21 granny squares sewed together ☺️

I'm halfway through "Agatha Christie's Poirot" by Mark Aldridge and it's being a delight (swipe for the cover). My preference goes to the context, discussing, and analysis Aldridge does for each work and adaptation, but the book is full of "extras" that add up to the arguments, like unpublished excerpts from Christie's autobiography, interviews, letters, reader reports, reactions at the time to the book's publication, visual and radio adaptations, some of which did not survive, but others that are still available, showing the rigorous and huge amount of work and research Aldridge must have put into this book.
The text is accompanied by book covers from editions through time and different countries. Some of these, depicting Poirot. As a reader that sometimes feels the adaptation doesn't portray the characters quiet as I imagined them, I do understand the resistance Christie had with depictions of Poirot. Still, I find it interesting to see how he was portrayed.
So, I thought I would share some of Portuguese book covers that depict Poirot. These are from the Portuguese collection, , that was quite important for the dissemination of the genre in Portugal. The collection has more than 700 volumes and it was published between 1947 and 2008.

É suposto até junho haver empréstimo de #ebooks por bibliotecas em Portugal. Não se sabe muito sobre as funcionalidades, mas o serviço existe noutros países da UE. No dia 12 de abril, a KR21 vai dar este webinar sobre a situação europeia. Inscrição gratuita⬇️

Se conhecerem bibliotecários ou pessoas que trabalhem com bibliotecas, partilhem este webinar. Era importante as bibliotecas em PT saberem a situação dos ebooks noutros países da UE quando forem confrontadas com a plataforma em PT.

Ontem, estivemos no Campus da Universidade do Minho no Open Knowledge Braga 2024, organizado pela @wikimediapt , para aprender e contribuir para o .

Também usámos aplicações móveis como a que permite responder a perguntas sobre o local onde nos encontramos (se as escadas têm corrimão ou se têm rampas, que tipo de piso tem o chão, etc.) ou como a @everydoor que permite mapear pontos de interesse no OSM (até árvores! 😊).

Existe um canal do OSM Portugal no Telegram aqui https://t.me/OSMPortugal
A página do evento está aqui: https://pt.wikimedia.org/wiki/Open_Knowledge_Braga_2024

A quick post, after a big distance trip, to show a second hand
Found these delights at Bookshop Bivar in Lisbon, and if you're in Portugal and looking for second hand books in English, this is the bookstore to go. They also send by post to other places in Portugal.
