I was invited to the Guadalajara book fair, recently, on a publisher’s fellowship. Afterwards, my travels around Mexico took me to the state of Chiapas, to visit an extraordinary book making cooperative of Mayan women called Taller Lenateros, The Woodlanders’ Workshop.
Impossible to sum up otherwise, I decided to turn my experience into a small visual trail around the world of the book, populated by readers, publishers, book fairs, writers, libraries, artists, book stores, book makers and books in all forms.

I was pleased to attend FIL this year in Guadalajara and discover Tara Books. Friends have admired the Tara book I purchased. In prior years Taller Leñateros was also present. I hope they return in future years to the fair.
I love the faces on the front!
Looking at the pictures it must be a great experience!
