Abstract:
This history of the Leipzig Book Fair examines the socialist showcase, the motor of the centrally planned book trade, censorship, and Stasi surveillance, but also the theft of books from Western publishers. It shows how Leipzig, due to the presence of delegates from the West German media and publishing houses, became a central site of German-German encounter and literary exchange during the Cold War
