Using the motto “Creatividad desbordante / Spilling Creativity”, this year’s Guest of Honour, Spain, will be showcasing its literary and cultural diversity in Frankfurt. In addition to the specially designed Guest of Honour Pavilion (Forum, Level 1) and numerous events featuring authors from Spain, an impressive showing is expected of exhibitors and publishers from throughout the country, including several of Spain’s Comunidades Autónomas, such as Galicia, Catalonia and the Basque Country, which will have their own stands at the fair. Under the hashtag #tapasliterarias, “literary titbits” are already appearing on Instagram to whet everyone’s appetite for literature from Spain. This is where book fair staff, publishers, authors, translators and editors are highlighting some of the approximately 150 new titles that will be published in German in conjunction with Spain’s appearance as Guest of Honour. More information on Spain’s role as Guest of Honour will be presented during the press conference on 22 June in Frankfurt, Germany (11:00 am, Instituto Cervantes, registration vie e-mail to:  presse@projekt2508.de).
