Juan Villoro in conversation with Francesco Manetto

El País event

 
Querétaro 2025, 

The digital era has transformed us, to the extent that it is now possible to think about ourselves as digital beings. We no longer turn the page, but scroll on our mobile devices. What is the role of reading in this new era? Juan Villoro (Mexico) responds to these and other questions in his book No soy un robot, an essay that avoids academicism and combines autobiography with reflection and speculation. In conversation with Francesco Manetto.
