"Tomsk Festival Book Sales: Which Books Will Be Offered in Part III"
Attend the "Tom III" Book Fair during the Tom Art and Literature Festival in Tomsk, happening in just two weeks! As the event's information partner, RIA Tomsk is thrilled to unveil the participating publishers and books they'll be bringing. Let's dive into part two, featuring some of Moscow's standout publishers with a touch from Tomsk as well:
The literary review "Необыкновенное Литературное Обозрение" (НЛО) is a must-read for anyone studying humanities in Russian universities, USA, Canada, Germany, or Finland. The publication's founder and editor-in-chief, Irina Prokhorova, is also set to join the festival to participate in a discussion about the art of reading.
In addition to touristic, cultural, and regional content, the independent Tomsk publisher "Макушин Медиа" crafts intriguing tales about cities and people. At the book fair, you can find their locally-focused guidebook, lavishly illustrated "City Journey: Tomsk," volumes one and two of serialist writer Sergey Malyshov's "Incendiary," an updated "Journey to Elan," the guide "Where Tomsk Was Found: A Guide to Ascension Hill," and a book titled "Shishkov's Tomsk: A Guide to the Gubernatorial City."
Kids will also find a treat with the best-sellers "Pinguinunk Tommy Goes Home" and "Unknown Sun," as well as the new story-adventure "A Hundred Years for Dora" about the adventures of a boy named Sasha and a sea gull named Dora amidst the siege of Leningrad.
While contemporary art, pop literature, gender studies, and anti-colonial research typically come from overseas publishers, V-A-C Press aims to bring these essential works to Russian readers. Their offerings at the festival include the complete works of Alexandrinsky Theatre's eminent theorist of production art, Boris Arvatov, in four volumes.
In Moscow, BuksMOART specializes in children's literature with classic works, beautifully illustrated editions, educational titles, and science-focused publications. At the festival, expect to find the latest with "Pinguinunk Tommy Goes Home," "The Mysterious Sun," and "A Hundred Years for Dora," an adventure story set against the backdrop of the siege of Leningrad.
Lastly, Cuco Pole Museon publishes scholarship and popular literature on history, art, and culture in collaboration with Russia's leading museums and archives. They will bring books featuring architecture, painting, decorative arts, historical documents, such as diaries, memoirs, and previously unpublished materials.
