tomorrow to come: Frankfurt book fair. i just printed my ticket, and then printed the fair plan, and marked interesting halls: guest country is Argentina. also, there is a comic-hall. and an art-book-hall. and a tent with readings again.
& now i just revisited my virtual notes from Frankfurt 2009 - back then, the guest country was China, which lead to enhanced security checks and concerns, but the fair itself was great, vibrating with themes and words. here 2 photos from back then:
the whole blog note is up here: Frankfurt book fair 2009 - the power of culture

this is something i'll likely never see or experience - i caught my breath a few times looking at the photos and reading your notes.
yes, the power of culture! thanks for sharing. look forward to hearing about this afterwards.
book fairs are so amazing! I was completely overwhelmed at the book selling section at the yearly AWP (Association of Writer's and Writing Programs) that I attended in Chicago a few years back. I'd love to go again but I'm too cheap!
Oh how wonderful! I'd love to go one day.
