Welcome to Libros Capsulas Amsterdam, or LCA Book Club. We’re a digital, multimedia book club experiment structured around bimonthly, themed capsules.

A capsule contains literature, art, and discourse centred around a curated theme, concept or specific image. Each capsule begins with a core of four books to open up conversation in the form of essays, academic writing, drawings, photography, general commentary, creative writing, opinion pieces, and more.

Submit your recommendations (literature, film, art) on the theme, your poetry and visual art, your favourite quotes and personal anecdotes – anything that you want to share with the book club!

Ultimately, LCA book club is a space to share our thoughts on a concept within the literary world with one another, as well as a platform for creatives looking to publish their work.

We open the capsule for exactly two months before closing it again, compiling your contributions into a printed newsletter that is also published on our website, creating an archive of digital time capsules.
