Common Ground 2020-2022
Important: We regret to announce that this year's Leipzig Book Fair has been cancelled. However, our long-term plan remains the same: introduce the German-speaking audiences to the not much known literature from Southeast Europe. In this sense, the three-year project of the Stand in Focus 2020-2022 will play an important role at the Leipzig Book Fair in the next two years.
