Fondazione Querini Stampalia launches book podcast Fahrenheit 5252

Under the leadership of Cristiana Collu, Fondazione Querini Stampalia in Venice has introduced the podcast series Fahrenheit 5252, which centers around literature. This initiative, accessible on both YouTube and Spotify, stands out as one of the pioneering cultural institutions to create a book podcast for dual platforms. Initially conceived as a Book Club targeting individuals aged 18 to 40, the inaugural season comprises eight episodes featuring content creators such as Annalisa Senatore, Mariavittoria Minisgallo, Alice La Franca, and Chiara Martini. Curated by Alessio Boi and presented by librarians Alice De Santis and Anna Nogarin, the series includes a table designed by Martí Guixé. Topics explored in the episodes include identity and education. Released episodes feature "La nostra prima volta" and "Tutti i mostri possibili," with new episodes scheduled for December 26, 28, January 2, and 4.
