Bookstores: A Grand Journey from Seoul to St. Petersburg
Would you like to go on a journey? Not just any journey, but to the most beautiful bookstores in the world? Kim On-ho is ready to be your guide in this wonderful world of big and small, modern and ancient...
bookstores.
The author has traveled around the globe, visiting all the famous bookstores: in Oslo and Paris, in New York and London, in Seoul and Tokyo. And not just talked about all the places he visited, but also captured them on camera. Therefore, you have the opportunity not only to read about different shops but also to see them from the inside. A bookstore is a place to go when you face any life question. A bookstore is a place you can come to find solace and healing if something worries you. Although reading is an activity we perform in solitude, it allows us to connect with the great sages of antiquity and interact with people all over the world today. Books are sensitive friends for each of us.
Who this book is for For everyone looking for inspiration in books and bookstores.
From the author I am amazed that there are still devoted readers and bibliophiles in the world who not only visit bookstores with admirable regularity but also derive pleasure from it. People who can't let go of a book, sometimes holding it close to their chest, and make reading a part of their everyday life are a source of hope for those of us who create books. I have often visited bookstores with readers in Europe, China, and Japan and was intoxicated by this beautiful world.
I have heard that recently there are even special tours dedicated to traveling to bookstores. Apparently, individual trips for bibliophiles are also becoming increasingly popular.
Recently, I heard that someone is preparing to open or has even already opened a bookstore after reading my "Notes." This is very joyful! As I tell my readers: "My secret goal is to make people read this book and open their own bookstore."
