E. J. PUBLISHING

The small publishing house, which was founded in 2018, specialises in books for children and young people, gradually adding interesting titles for adults. It publishes books that are beautiful both in content and visually. The publishing plan includes both author’s and translated books. It tries to bring interesting titles from abroad, and in the domestic production it cooperates with the best authors, illustrators, designers, translators from Slovakia and sometimes also from abroad. The content of his work covers a variety of topics, he is not afraid of the less popular ones, but also of books that are purely entertaining. In the portfolio you will also find comics, which are a matter of the heart. We support reading for pleasure.

BOOK Carpathians

Wandering through real and fictional landscapes. Carpathians! Here I am! Or is it? The land of childhood and adolescence. Acquired, lived, abandoned and found again. Beautiful. But different for everyone.

The boundaries of this land are not fixed. They move somewhere between reality and dream. Children, vagabonds, pilgrims, woodcutters, counts, monks, inventors, aviators, philosophers and writers meet there. And finally, quite ordinary people.

In this little book you will find a wealth of stories, observations, notes and reflections. History and today. Fact and fiction. Violence and tenderness. The history of the Pálffys and truckloads of stones. Spring in bloom and trees felled by snow. And if you want, it will serve you as a guide to the Little Carpathians, which is guaranteed to make you wander somewhere. Somewhere that will captivate you. In one way or another.

This book offers a record of everyday life lived in the middle of an extraordinary landscape, where an ordinary walk outside the village turns into an adventure or a trip into the past full of unexpected connections. Come along for a walk with us!

The event is supported by the Fund for the Promotion of the Arts from public funds.
