AGP Executive Report

Last update: an hour ago

San Sebastián Film Festival: Fatih Akin’s Ghost Song opens the 74th edition in competition, with the Golden Shell race now set for 18-26 September. Publishing & culture: Spain-based Entalto Publishing will release The Alighieri Circle: Dante’s Bloodline (PC/PS5/Xbox) on September 10, adapting The Divine Comedy into a psychological mystery. Literature spotlight: A new piece revisits José Saramago’s Blindness, using the novel’s moral collapse to ask what “doing the right thing” costs when society breaks. Media ethics: Jason Arday’s treatment is framed as a double standard in plagiarism accusations, echoing how Black journalists have historically faced harsher career fallout. International book-adjacent news: A “piyut” poem has been created from former Gaza hostage Agam Berger’s six Hebrew words, turning her message into prayer-poetry.
