Indipendent Bookstores

An independent bookstore is a retail bookstore which is indipendently owned. 

Now let's give to Caesar what is Caesar's:

I am working on bookstores because they are an incredibly valuable cultural estate.
Independent bookstores are independently owned, meaning that they are not owned by major editors, meaning that they are the channel for minor editors and authors. Minor authors not always are bad ones (as major authors not always are bad ones) : sometimes they are at their first book, sometimes they write inconvenient things, sometimes they write on specialized topics... and they need careful or passionate editors to be published and independent bookstores to be visible. 

I aim to preserve bookstores, eventually enriching them with a service based project, as places where culture is cared for and as places where people and ideas meet not just on-line.


I will research on bookstores as well as on libraries, book societies, associations, events, blogs and projects on books, to understand the contemporary "book world" as much as possible.
