The 19th edition of the BCNegra literary festival takes place between February 5 and 11. A total of 153 writers from around the world will come to Barcelona to talk about the loss of privacy from different perspectives.

Every year, the festival chooses a book, an author and a character that will star in the festival, and dedicate activities to it. The book will be The Spy Who Came in from the Cold (1963) by John Le Carré, considered one of the best spy novels set in the Cold War.
