Every day until the end of the Fair, the Festival of Writers takes place at the "Archipelago" stand. And everything else seems as if this and other publishers are not going through one of the extremely difficult periods
At the Book Fair in Belgrade, at the "Archipelago" stand, the "Festival of Writers" is held every day, during which the authors of new titles from this publisher will be presented.
Both this year's production of "Archipelago" (Gojko Božović, founder and editor-in-chief of this publishing house, specifies that it is only for ten months) and its fair presentation, seem as if the publishers are not going through one of the extremely difficult periods.
Proof of vitality
Gojko Božović says for "Vreme" that this is understandable because "people do better than the situation they are in." It just means that we care about the book and that we are vital."
He notes that the circumstances in which publishers work can be seen in the reduced number of titles. Božović's impression is that there are fewer visitors this year than last year.
Festival guests
Archipelago's Festival of Writers was opened on Monday with the guest appearance of Uglješa Šajtinac, the author of the novel "Madame Firefly" and the leading contemporary Romanian poets Lucian Alexiu with his book of poetry "The Snows of Kilimanjaro" and George Florescu with "Man from the Pyramid", as well as the Serbian poet from Romania Slavomir Gvozdenović with the book "Autobiography with Poetry".
