What's new in Melitensia
Melitensia's book of the month – February 2025
Bilkemm jitwemmnu! : Stejjer veri ta' nies minn kull rokna ta' Malta u Għawdex written by George Cremona. Published by Merlin Publishers.
In the second volume of Bilkemm Jitwemmnu!, Cremona introduces readers to 51 other individuals from Malta and Gozo, whose stories were originally shared on Radio Calypso 101.8 FM. These accounts capture various aspects of everyday life, ranging from humorous moments to extraordinary experiences, from cherished memories to the harsh realities of existence. Through this collection, Cremona thus demonstrates to readers that every life holds at least one moment that is almost beyond belief!
The list of new Melitensia acquisitions is available online.
