51 authors write about a book that defined them.
A life in books and publishing people, discussions upon discussions. Each from his own position. What will you write, what have you read, something nice to recommend, did you like the latest book by so-and-so, what is your favorite book, what should I read next? Those of us who move around and come and go in the publishing world are constantly involved in such conversations, sometimes we disagree, sometimes we agree, the sure thing is that we never lose interest for a moment. In light of these endless discussions, we also thought about the theme of this year’s calendar. And so we came up with the idea of asking our authors to write us a short text about a book that defined them, changed them, that they love very much, played a role in their lives, shaped them, whatever they want, freely! And so, 51 of our authors tell us about their “most personal book”. We thank them very much for their response to our call. But also because with their work and love they have been creating “the most personal books” for us for so many years.
