British-Croatian Society
Today the Croatian ambassador launched the British-Croatian Society's publication Writing Croatia at the London Book Fair.
It was produced as a contribution to Croatia's participation in the London Book Fair and as part of creativeCroatia.
Croatia's stand was earlier visited by Tibor Navracsics, the EU's Commissioner for Culture with Jeremy O'Sullivan, the EU's Cultural Attache in London.
An electronic version of Writing Croatia is attached and hard copies will be available at British-Croatian Society events. The introduction to Writing Croatia outlines the purpose of the publication:
Writing Croatian is for readers in the UK who would like to read some good writing from Croatia or want to know more about the country.
It is not always easy to find out what is going on in Croatia. Media coverage in the UK is limited and much that is exciting in Croatia goes unnoticed. The British-Croatian Society attempts to address this. Writing Croatia is a follow-up to Mapping Croatia that we published in 2013 as a guide to Croatian works of art in UK museums and galleries (copies are available by emailing britishcroatiansociety@gmail.com).
Writing Croatia is not a definitive list. It includes out of print books that may be available from second hand booksellers. Further information about each book can be found on booksellers’ websites. If you have suggestions for additions, or other comments, please email us at britishcroatiansociety@gmail.com.
