Bookshop: a dwelling place of soul in bustling metropolis

April 23rd marks the 28th World Book Day. In Zhuhai, the promotion of reading for all cannot be successful without the support of bookstores. Henry Higgins, editor-in-chief of the book: The World in Bookshops, said, "Bookshops are always sparking new desires, planting the seed of desires in our hearts. Such desires can lie dormant for a long time, and then suddenly break through the ground to sprout. Such is their magic: inspiration stirs in our hearts, awakening unfamiliar desires; dreamsgrow bigger, illuminating the mind." There are countless reasons to praise bookstores. They influence the cultural context of a city, carrying its character and ethos. #artandculture

4月23日是第28个“世界读书日”。在珠海，推广全民阅读，离不开大小书店的支撑。《世界在书店中》一书的主编亨利·希金斯曾说：“书店永远都在产生新的渴望，永远都在我们心中播种渴望。这种渴望会休眠很长一段时间，然后突然破土发芽。这就是它们的魔力：灵感在我们心中激荡，偶遇唤醒陌生的热望，梦想越来越大，顿悟照亮了心灵”。借此可以说出无数个赞美书店的理由，它们无形地影响着一座城市的文脉流动，藏着一座城市的风骨与气质。
