History-making sales for Sant Jordi across Catalonia
Sant Jordi was a very successful day this year for booksellers and florists, and a very crowded one in the streets. "Citizens from all over the country have taken to the streets to buy books since the early hours of the morning in a year that, according to first estimates, is the best in history," the Catalan Book Chamber said in a statement, explaining that sales had increased by over 5%.
