Cubans are compensating for the high temperatures this summer season by reading in a new campaign starting Friday to encourage the habit of reading.

A book fair, "Summertime Reading," was preceded by the Night of Books, run in the capital July 6.

In addition of selling books, the initiative includes literary gatherings, concerts, performances by troubadours, as well as dance and theater activities.
