On the 15th anniversary of the project By reading to the stars We invite you to a conversation with a renowned journalist, war correspondent and author of eleven books Boštjan Videmšek, long-time collaborators of many prominent global print media.

The focus of the conversation will be his latest book Peace and war, which raises many current questions and encourages us to reflect on the world in which we live.

The book explores the evolution of journalism, provides in-depth insights into key contemporary conflicts in Iraq, Afghanistan, Gaza and Ukraine, explores the impact of climate change on our future, and raises important questions about how to maintain hope in a world marked by uncertainty and conflict.

He will talk to the guest. Only Rosh.

The evening will also be enriched by a performance by a famous Slovenian singer, whose name remains a surprise for now. At the end of the meeting, we will ceremoniously present awards and recognitions to the participating readers.

The event will be coordinated by Luka Žerjav.

With this event, we will also conclude our anniversary year at the Celje Central Library, in which we marked three important anniversaries: 120 years of public librarianship in Celje, 80 years of the Study Library on Museum Square and 50 years of the Department of Local History.

We look forward to meeting you!

The event is being prepared in collaboration with UMco Publishing House.
