Exmo Publishing House will no longer issue flipbooks Automatic translate

MOSCOW. One of the largest publishers of Russia, Eksmo, has announced the suspension of the release of pocket-sized books, the so-called flipbooks. The reason for this decision is an increase in the exchange rate and an increase in production costs. The publisher explains that in connection with the crisis, such books will grow significantly in price, and it will simply be unprofitable to purchase them. The retail cost of one such book at similar costs will be about 500 rubles. Readers will be much more profitable to purchase electronic publications for smartphones or e-books.

Flipbooks, which became a real discovery for Russia a couple of years ago, are small books that easily fit in your pocket. The horizontal arrangement of the text guarantees convenient reading of such books in transport, and the size of 8x16 cm really allows you to put the book in your pocket. Eksmo launched the release of flip books in 2013, since then more than 20 books have been published, among them the works of R. Bradberry, J. Salinger, F.M. Dostoevsky and many others.
