The Hünfeld City Library is inviting people to “Silent Reading” for the first time on April 16th. Conversations, cell phones and music are excluded for an hour. The event is free of charge.

Hünfeld – Just the rustling of pages turning: The Hünfeld City Library is inviting you to a “Silent Reading” evening for adult bookworms for the first time on Thursday, April 16th, from 7:15 p.m. to 8:15 p.m. The new reading format follows a trend in which reading quietly in a community and in a relaxed atmosphere is intended to rekindle the desire for books, as the city of Hünfeld reports.

The participants sit together in a comfortable atmosphere, but each of them immerses themselves in their own reading. “Without being distracted by conversations, cell phones or music, the reader can concentrate on just one thing, reading,” the statement continues. All you can hear is the quiet rustling of the pages as you turn the pages.

Doors open at 7:05 p.m. on the day of the event. In the following ten minutes you have time to arrive, turn off your cell phone and find a comfortable place with your favorite book. From 7.15 p.m. it's time to browse undisturbed for an hour – in the company of other reading enthusiasts and yet completely by yourself. The “Silent Reading” event in the Hünfeld City Library is free of charge and registration is not required.

A few months earlier had Bestselling author Max Bentow read from his new psychological thriller entitled “Rabenland” in Hünfeld.
