If On a Winter's Night a Traveler

A novel that begins with you, the reader, sitting down to read a novel. Calvino's most playful and most serious book is about what happens between a text and the person reading it — about the gap, the leap of faith, the act of interpretation that reading always requires. For a bookshop founded on the belief that something new is created every time a book crosses a language, it could not be more fitting.
