Enchanted
Lion: A Visit with the Brooklyn-Based Indie Publisher
Enchanted Lion, known for publishing international picture books with a playfully subversive flair, shares its space with a real estate office on a tranquil block in Red Hook, Brooklyn. There are several of the trademark trappings of a busy publishing house: crowded shelves, stacks of brightly colored books, illustrations pinned to a cork board. But unlike the book-making meccas of Manhattan, the room more closely resembles a small-town library than an office. There’s no influx of editors and interns here; publisher Claudia Bedrick is the lone occupant, surrounded by the literary fruits of her labors. more
