Re: Books-games in RussiaHail! That's very interesting. In Russia, I read books-games of different countries, but about the Italian book-games I have only seen an article in which very little was told. As I understand it, in Italy, unlike many other countries, books, games are still in high demand, willingly published by many publishers and read?

Re: Books-games in RussiaAs far as I can tell, they started being popular again in the last few years. Gamebooks reached peak popularity in Italy during the eighties and early nineties. They went out of fashion after that, but as I’ve said before, the situation has drastically improved.

Re: Books-games in RussiaThat's fine! It's all very interesting. In General, in different countries there was a parallel situation: in 70 \ 80\90 years there was a rise in the popularity of books, games (and in this period, many books, games resembled the likeness of computer games, which could compete), in the 2000s there was a sharp decline (there were many other forms of leisure, computer games and movies have become more technologically advanced), and then begins the Renaissance of books, games. But in other countries, as I see it, it is more timid than in Italy. In Russia, there is only one publishing house that produces only books-games in small editions, and occasionally something is published somewhere else. In Bulgaria, the situation is better, but not to say very much, although some authors publish on a par with the "normal" literature of the book-games as "interactive novels", mainly in Sofia. In Germany, as I recently learned, there is a publishing house "Mantikore", which publishes books-games (basically they like "Das Schwarze Auge"). In Spain and Spanish-speaking countries mostly like books-games in the style of CYOA, but now read a little and attitude as to frivolous books, although there are books for adults, serious. In France, there is a publishing house "Gallimard", which previously published avant-garde works, then books-games, and publishes them now, as well as a number of other publishers (publish books-games about The Great French Revolution and other popular topics). In Japan, as far as I know, books-games were created as an imitation of computer games, put on paper: I learned how things were before, but I do not know how they are now. Well, in the UK and the US is more or less stable, although there is no such hype as in the 70-90s. How do Italian readers generally feel about game books? As to literature for teenagers, or as to enough serious?
