A few words about the KAKTOS Publications:
From the 1974 until 1991, released over 2,800 titles. Names of leading authors, such as Arthur Clarke, Isaac Asimov, Michel de Gres, Mary Reno and others, became more widely known to the Greek public during that period.
From the 1991, KAKTOS Publications focused on the groundbreaking edition of the series "Ancient Greek Literature – The Greeks"This award-winning series consists of 817 volumes so far and it is the largest and most complete in the world.
Today, KAKTOS Publications continues with the same passion to offer the reading public timeless titles in all genres, while they recently launched a new ambitious project: the transfer of stories and texts from ancient Greek literature into children's books through the series: "Children Read Ancients" and "Myths in Tsepaki".
The BOOKBAR by Kaktos is the new proposal of the Publications for those looking for a welcoming space where the book dominates and coexists harmoniously with the small pleasures that we all need to take a break from the intensity of everyday life, a cup of coffee, a fresh dessert and the pages of a good book.
