And other bookish things!

Hi!

New live stream and podcast episodes!

Both Pavel and Stepan have some experience of visiting inspiring and unusual bookshops in different countries and catering to different audiences. We have also crawled the internet to look for the opinions of other people.

Join us this Wednesday during our live stream to discuss the most inspiring and beautiful bookstores you have ever seen! And, probably, some other things as well, we never stay on a single topic for the whole length of the stream =)

We start streaming at 12:00 CET (22:00 AEDT / 19:00 CST / 6:00 AM EST):

Please consider joining the community of our supporters on Patreon. Their pledges allow us to cover the expenses for editing the videos of our podcast!

Reinventing the Bulgarian Traditional Bookbinding - Kalin Daskalov / Stopan

Kalin Daskalov is a bookbinder from Bulgaria famous for his style, experiments with tooling, and use of metal decorations made by his father. While we talked to him on our podcast, we discussed the fact that in Bulgaria, like in many other Eastern European countries, the tradition of bookbinding was interrupted during the Soviet rule in the 20th century.
