The world’s largest bookfair, Frankfurter Buchmesse, opened its doors last October 16-20, 2024, in Frankfurt, Germany. For worldwide business and trading, it is regarded as the most significant book fair on earth. More than 4,300 exhibitors and an expected 114,000 trade visitors from 131 countries, welcoming rights professionals from a total of 355 agencies and publishers make the Frankfurt Book Fair a place of endless discoveries. On the stages we experienced exciting international voices.
As the Frankfurter Buchmesse celebrates its anniversary for another year of serving the industry, Citi of Books did not miss the chance to join the 76th Frankfurt Book Fair (Frankfurt Buchmesse) in Frankfurt, Germany. This spectacular gathering honors fascinating works and their creators.
With a series of activities prepared, one of the most anticipated this year is the chosen country to be the guest of honor, which is Italy. The country will present not just its diverse, unique qualities as an attractive place to travel but also as a country with a rich literary tradition.
Citi of Books is excited to present books written by our distinguished authors. In our assigned booth, a range of books—from fiction to nonfiction—would be on exhibit. A book included in the gallery was “Collection Of Short Stories (2022)” by Carol G. Lodzinski.
Carol Lodzinski grew up in New Jersey, where her childhood was steeped in the joys of nature and community. Her family spent countless hours near the water, crabbing, fishing, and waterskiing, creating cherished memories in the great outdoors. Surrounded by friendly neighbors, Lodzinski had ample opportunities to explore—whether it was berry-picking, learning the art of beekeeping from a local enthusiast, or enjoying horseback rides at a nearby stable.
Among her fondest memories is the front porch of their cozy bungalow, an idyllic setting for sunny afternoons and stormy nights alike. It was there that her mother captivated her and her brother Richard with incredible stories, igniting Lodzinski’s passion for storytelling.
“Collection of Short Stories (2022)” is a delightful anthology perfect for readers on the go or those short on time. With a diverse range of tales—from romance and drama to mystery and thriller—each page offers a new adventure, ensuring that there’s something for everyone in Carol Lodzinski’s engaging collection. This anthology not only reflects her storytelling prowess but also invites readers to experience the same wonder and excitement that inspired her as a child.
