Frankfurt Book Fair

by Jane Curry on Monday, November 9th, 2009

I am just back from the Frankfurt Book Fair – the largest rights fair in the world. The fair absolutely confirms content is king (or queen) as you witness the volume and passion involved in the trading of intellectual property rights between countries and languages.

It is a privilege to be selling JCP authors into new markets – particularly when I have been so closely involved with the development of the book from the very beginning.

E-books were the hot subject but they are only the glossy new side of a very old and distinguished industry –  sharing ideas, concepts and imagination with the world through books.
