The closing event was headlined by writer and screenwriter Albert Espinosa, known for works like 'El mundo amarillo' and the series 'Pulseras rojas'. Espinosa presented his latest novel, 'Nunca estuviste solo', in an emotional and reflective encounter characterized by its closeness to the audience. Following the talk, he spent considerable time signing books and interacting with attendees.
