His surprise would be great, with everyone wearing a mask and health messages everywhere.STATEMENTS BY MARTÍN GREMMELSPACHER, EDITOR AND PRESIDENT OF THE ARGENTINE CHAMBER OF BOOK"Bookstores are attending their clients at the door, people cannot enter the bookstores. Bookstores in large shopping centers are closed. It is a measure designed to protect the industry, the idea is to try to produce more in Argentina to favor the local market. Therefore, publishers are going to produce what we already had prepared to launch this year, they will look for some new ones and in some cases, with books high in demand, evaluations will be made and little by little we will advance to see what happens."
