Ep 6 Books
Discussion on publishing would be incomplete without a discussion on bookstores, which have always been a key link between publishers and readers, before the advent of online stores. In this episode, Manjari Sahay engages Amrita Somaiya, Nijesh Shah, Rick Simonson and Sarah High on what the trends were in sale of books through brick and mortar structures before the pandemic and what impact has Covid-19 had on them, primarily shifting the attention from physical bookstores to online availability of books, and how that has influenced the sale and distribution channels of books. Amrita Somaiya is Director at Kitab Khana. Nijesh Shah is Group President at Sapna Book House and Sapna Infoway. Rick Simonson is Senior Book Buyer, and Co-Director of Reading Series at Elliott Bay Book Company. Sarah High is Partnerships Manager at Bookshops.org. Manjari Sahay is Book Club and Literary Associate at Belongg.
