Looks like I will have a book launch at their new store in LA, and a Swiss friend of mine organized a couple of dates in Germany and Switzerland end of September to promote his stores and website. Taschen is too frugal to invest anything in book tours. Even for LA, Mr B's directive was " come up with a great concept on lowest budget"....How about a great budget for a low concept !? :D But I can't really complain, they put it all into the book, and there is nobody else that gives that much book, and with that kind of distribution. Book tours unfortunately don't really make their expenses back for the publisher. P.S.: I do think it'll be in the stores around the same time in Europe than in the US, beginning to middle of September [ Edited by: bigbrotiki 2007-08-14 09:01 ]
