Book Talks under the 4th I·CARE Book Festival

Themed "Reading is Voyaging through Time and Space", the 4th I·CARE Book Festival organised by this Centre rolled out its first "Book Talk" on the 6th of this month.  Till now, 10 "Book Talks" have been successfully held.

Reading takes us everywhere. Reading biographies is seeing others' minds; reading history is travelling in time; reading about the nature is understanding other living beings.
