Literati is a bookshop cum cafe situated in an old restored house located at E/1-282 Gaura Vaddo, Calangute. There is a new books and old books section and a reference room is also in the process of evolving. The aim is also for Literati to evolve into a space where book readings, book clubs, theatre, workshops, exhibitions, music, dance and other activities can take place on a small scale. Literati will open on Friday the 4th of November 2005. The launch is scheduled for the 3rd of November with a wine and cheeze and coffee and cakes soiree between 4.30 to 6.30 p.m. At 5 p.m. there will be a reading by Isabel Santa Rita Vas of excerpts from a play written by her, called "Through Corridors of Power". The play is based on the life of Abbe Faria the Father of Hypnotism, who is originally from Candolim, the area neighbouring the bookshop. Since 31st May 2006 will be the 250th birth anniversary of Abbe Faria it seems appropriate that the inaugural reading of Literati be of "Through Corridors of Power".
