On Thursday, May 8th: selection by Lina Itagaki (Lithuania)
Personal collection
Lina Itagaki’s selection brings together books that stand out both for their content and their physical presence. Her collection ranges from illustrated works and historical diaries to experimental cookbooks and handmade miniatures — each chosen for the microlibrary because of its unique design, paper, binding, or visual language. Inside each book, readers will find a short note from Lina herself, explaining what makes that particular book special and why it has found a place in her collection.
These books boldly and personally blend art and literature. Whether it’s a handwritten manuscript in pencil, colorful illustrations, a cover that unfolds into a poster, or an unusual layout — Lina Itagaki’s selection invites readers to experience the book as a physical object, as something carefully crafted, aesthetic, and emotionally resonant.
All books are from Lina Itagaki’s personal collection.
