Bologna:A City Blooming with Books   By Kim Nam-joong on Nov 14 2014 15:43:59 Vol.16 Summer 2012 Last winter felt particularly long. There were no blossoming flowers well into March, and April brought a heavy snowfall. Perhaps because of the long winter, I found the spring flowers in Bologna all the more lovely. Seven years ago when I attended the Bologna Children's Book Fair for the first time, I hadn’t imagined that I would ever come back. The brick buildings that looked even more faded in the early spring, the cool shadowy area in the seemingly neverending corridors of the city, and the scenery that was plain compared to the other cities in Italy—all these did not leave me with a special impression because I admit that as a visitor at that time, I was more keenly interested in wine than books.
