Press Coverage April 22nd, 2009 Baby-newsTara has received a lot of press since we published our first book in 1994. We have been covered by a variety of media sources – from local newspapers to the BBC World Service television. Here you will find a selection of both partial and full length articles written on Tara and our work. “For most publishers worldwide, the imperative seems to be the pursuit of profit rather than the pursuit of creativity. Books nowadays are generally of an above average, but homogenous standard. One exception: Tara Books from Chennai, India, who possess a treasurable catalogue that combines tradition and modernity with genius.” – Il Manifesto, Italy “A celebration of storytelling, drawing and the art of bookmaking.” – Los Angeles Weekly “International recognition has come to Tara for the skill and creative energy the publisher expends on its books which are classics in more than just the literary sense…” – Businessworld “Books published by Tara are dramatically different from other children’s books available in India in terms of design, content and visuals. But what makes Tara different from other publishing ventures is not merely its illustrated books or interesting concepts but the fact that books are published without solely concentrating on conventional market logic…” – The Sunday Pioneer “Tara is one of the most interesting producers of handmade books on the planet… Part of the experience of opening and handling a Tara handmade book is the fragrance it emits from between the covers. The confluence of paper and inks is unlike anything you are accustomed to here. You know you are experiencing a different world, a different culture, as the exotic, bookish fumes enter your nose. – Fine Books & Collections “Simply Divine!” – The Guardian Press Archives Best Dutch Book Designs (2001), the prestigious design catalogue, features Gita Wolf’s essay on Tara Publishing’s design agenda. At Tara, we enjoy playing with the form of the book. This disposition is combined of course with the need to be inventive, to make the best of what is available to us. Tara’s designs are very much a product – in equal measure – of our publishing philosophy, context and location. Sfoglialibro (2001), one of Italy’s leading children’s magazines, features an article by Tara publisher Gita Wolf. In a country like India, literally anything is possible. On a normal working day, any or all of the following can happen: the electricity can snap off every few minutes. Outlook Intelligent Investor (2002) speaks to Gita Wolf on the challenges of running a small creative enterprise. We applaud those out there on the frontlines, exhibiting the courage and creativity it takes… to impress readers in a world of superstores and publishing conglomerates.
