Open Mic Poetry 

Join us for an evening of books, conversation, and community as we dive into a timeless literary classics!

Book of the Month:&nbsp;L'Etranger by Albert Camus&nbsp;

In&nbsp;The Outsider&nbsp;(1942), his classic existentialist novel, Camus explores the alienation of an individual who refuses to conform to social norms. Meursault, his anti-hero, will not lie.When his mother dies, he refuses to show his emotions simply to satisfy the expectations of others. And when he commits a random act of violence on a sun-drenched beach near Algiers, his lack of remorse compounds his guilt in the eyes of society and the law. Yet he is as much a victim as a criminal.Albert Camus' portrayal of a man confronting the absurd, and revolting against the injustice of society, depicts the paradox of man's joy in life when faced with the 'tender indifference' of the world.&nbsp;

Sandra Smith's translation, based on close listening to a recording of Camus reading his work aloud on French radio in 1954, sensitively renders the subtleties and dream-like atmosphere of L'Étranger.&nbsp;

Círculo de Poesia

Join us for a Friday evening at the bar with Scott and Marta from Desviso - excellent wine producers from Lisbon!

Scott and Marta will welcome you at the bar and introduce you to the wine selection for the evening! During this 3 hours you will have a chance to taste carefully selected wines from Desviso winery and dive into conversation with Scott and Marta about their story, wines and their production process of natural fermentation, care and respect that is reflected in each wine bottle they make.&nbsp;

Vinhos Desviso is a small, family-run winery, founded by Scott and Marta. He is American, she is Portuguese, and they have been together for over 12 years. The couple decided to start their own project with the main goal of producing fresh, elegant wines, that translate their individual experiences and journey together.

Before starting Vinhos Desviso Marta and Scott worked in wineries in the USA, specifically in the small town of Walla Walla located in Washington State. It was through harvest experiences in Portugal that the idea of returning to Portugal to make their own wine with Portuguese grape varieties was born.

The winery is located about 50 minutes north of Lisbon, between the towns of Bombarral and Óbidos. After repurposing the old family’s warehouse into a winery, Vinhos Desviso’s first harvest was in 2022.

Grapes are always hand-harvested, carefully selecting only the best bunches. At the winery, the wines are produced with minimal intervention (natural fermentation, no fining, no filtering), but above all, with a lot a respect and care for the land and what comes from it, allowing for each wine to express itself and tell its own story.

Event comes to life thanks to&nbsp;<a href="https://terroirvinho.com/about-us-3/" target="_blank">terroir</a>, our wine provider who work with small producers who have a close relationship with their vineyards and the process that takes place in the cellar. They share wines with a sense of place and a connection to people.&nbsp;

This event is free to attend, but we ask that you register a free ticket in advance so we know how many people to expect.&nbsp;

From Taste To Tell - Gastronomy Writing Workshop 

Join us with your kids for a creative and fun Art Workshops on Sunday morning at Good Company Bookstore!

Our workshop arises as an extension of the reading sessions that take place on Saturday mornings at Good Company Bookstore. The objective is to give body to the inner world of each participant, whether from the stories heard the previous week or from the need to transpose their own fantasies into shapes, colors, and textures.

The upcoming workshop,&nbsp;Crazy Brushes, proves that you don't need to go to a store to find the perfect paintbrush. Sometimes, it’s waiting in the park or hidden in that famous junk drawer we all have at home.

Using everyday objects and natural elements, participants will build homemade brushes and explore their possibilities. After testing these new tools, they will develop a composition, taking advantage of the unique effects each brush offers. In this way, the marks left behind will suggest the path forward, leaving it up to each individual to decide what to compose based on the shapes and textures obtained.

In addition to the materials already included, a variety of pre-made brushes will be available for immediate experimentation. For younger participants, the assembly process will be adapted to their ages.

The event has a cost of 7 euros (+tax). We ask that you make the reservation in advance so we can prepare enough materials for all the little artists. Please select how many adults will accompany. If you cannot attend, we ask that you cancel your ticket so that others can join.

Each session is unique and offers a structured script, designed to guide each child in the exploration of the contours of their imagination. We are going to discover different themes, techniques, and supports in each encounter. Here, we demystify the idea of "not having a knack" or "I can't" and we celebrate experimentation as an essential part of the process.&nbsp;

Nothing special, just bring your curiosity! We provide all the necessary materials to materialize ideas into physical creations.&nbsp;

This workshop is for all children who want to expand their creative horizons through art. So that they feel safe and integrated, parents and caregivers are welcome to accompany the sessions.&nbsp;

The project is open to suggestions! Our hostess, Margarida, will be attentive to the tastes and proposals of each child, in order to shape her offer to our little artists.

By Metro:&nbsp;We're situated a 5-minute walk from the Campo Pequeno metro (Yellow line) and a 10-minute walk from the Alameda metro (Green &amp; Red lines).

By Bus:&nbsp;There are many convenient bus options 2 blocks away from us on Avenida República, with the closest stop to our store being Campo Pequeno-Av. Republica.

Izabela will take you on an adventure through her stories crafted with her rich travel experience, knowledge, and, most importantly, curiosity about wine and all its secrets.&nbsp;

In her book&nbsp;Wild Yeast: Stories about wine, she explores how Crocodile Dundee and Chornobyl helped Europe fall in love with Australian Shiraz, shares her personal passions for books and films, and tells the story of how manga “The Drops of Gods” saved Bordeaux, among others.

The good news is that what you will hear during the event, you can take home, saved between two covers!&nbsp;Copies will be available during the event, but you can also get your copy beforehand on our website:&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="https://goodcompanybooks.com/shop/product/wild-yeast/57731224535421">Purchase your copy here!</a>

Izabela Kamińska - Journalist, wine expert, wine competition judge, and educator (holder of the WSET Diploma – the highest level awarded by the global Wine and Spirit Education Trust).

A philologist by education, she is now also an artist exhibiting her work in Warsaw and Lisbon. She currently lives in Portugal, where she hosts wine events and seeks inspiration for new podcast episodes and future books.

Wine is more than just a drink made from grapes. That’s why the stories told in Wild Yeasts are not only about wine itself, but also about our civilization, human discoveries, politics and war, art, culture, pop culture, and our relationship with nature.

This book is the result of my many journeys, conversations with winemakers, and hundreds of books and articles I’ve read. In it, I share my passion, discoveries, favourite places around the world, and films and books. And most importantly, my knowledge.

I invite you to join me on a journey through this extraordinary world.

"Wild Yeast" Stories about wine: Storytelling & Wine Tasting

Join us for an evening of books, conversation, and community as we dive into recent works of contemporary fiction!

Book of the Month:&nbsp;The God of Small Things&nbsp;by Arundhati Roy

About the Book:&nbsp;"They all broke the rules. They all crossed into forbidden territory. They all tampered with the laws that lay down who should be loved, and how. And how much."This is the story of Rahel and Estha, twins growing up among the banana vats and peppercorns of their blind grandmother’s factory, and amid scenes of political turbulence in Kerala. Armed only with the innocence of youth, they fashion a childhood in the shade of the wreck that is their family: their lonely, lovely mother, their beloved Uncle Chacko (pickle baron, radical Marxist, bottom-pincher) and their sworn enemy, Baby Kochamma (ex-nun, incumbent grand-aunt).&nbsp;

Arundhati Roy’s Booker Prize-winning novel was the literary sensation of the 1990s: a story anchored to anguish but fuelled by wit and magic.
