This year’s pride is not only that we have managed to involve 35 publishing houses from all over Italy, but also that we have managed to involve many local booksellers. We are happy to give space to all the organizations that want to participate in this real book festival. An important opportunity to bring independent publishing to Abruzzo, to give space to local publishers, to publishing for children, and to emphasize how books are a living material, which creates a network and shortens distances between people” – explains Doctor Elisa Quinto, who directs the Macondo School in Pescara.
