Archívum

An overview of Russian book culture through the eyes of the leader of the Bulanin Publishing House, Saint Petersburg founded in 1992 specialising in humanities. The Russian book market is shrinking from year to year. Books are relatively cheep, there are immense stocks from the previous period that cannot be sold. Popular literature (crime stories, feminine novels, comics) is published and there is no limit for this type of market. The professionalism of publishers is gone, the content and form of books has deteriorated. There are problems with distribution as well. Scientific and technical books are more difficult to sell. The Bulanin Publishing House tries to survive in these circumstances specialising in series, monographs, scientific works, dictionaries, reference works in the field of humanities.
