Literature can make experiences visible when they remain at the margins of public discussion. That is the starting point for Rainbook, the LGBTQIA+ cultural festival scheduled in Cagliari from 21 to 25 October 2026. The dates in La Bottega di Hamlin’s 14 October update are corroborated by the Associazione Editori Veneti calendar.

Created by Michele Pipia and Giovanni Follesa and organised by Baa Bà APS, the project connects books, rights and communities. The new presentation also highlights the Laura Grasso literary prize, with sections for published and unpublished work. For readers, it is an invitation to explore different perspectives through fiction and cultural encounters. Before attending, check the latest venue and time details with the organisers.
