After more than 20 years in publishing\u2014working with companies such as Quarto Publishing and Michael O\u2019Mara Books in the UK, Mauro decided in 2019 to establish his own agency, with the goal of giving independent publishing houses across Europe a stronger voice. Book Everywhere began by representing Italian (Arka, Il Castello, La Margherita), Portuguese (Edicare), Catalan (Mosquito Books Barcelona) and Dutch (Lantaarn) publishers. The literary agency\u2019s mission has always been to promote and sell children\u2019s books from non-mainstream publishers, showcasing the vibrancy and creativity of independent publishing across Europe. Since then, the agency\u2019s list has continued to grow: Books Everywhere supported Dobrovsky Publishers in the Czech Republic by promoting their graphic novels; it added more Italian publishers to represent on the international stage, including Aboca, an independent and environmentally conscious publisher; it has been working closely with Hoepli in Italy, which, ahead of the 2025 Bologna Book Fair, launched a new children\u2019s list for which the agency holds exclusive representation; it also represents Ikaros, a boutique publishing house from Greece; and, in addition, it has recently partnered with the UK publisher DoReMi. Looking ahead, Books Everywhere is preparing to announce the addition of an Italian publisher specializing in adult illustrated books. The agency firmly believes that countries like Italy, with their wealth of talented authors and illustrators, remain underrepresented internationally. It considers its mission to change this. Books Everywhere also strongly believes that Mediterranean countries, sharing so many cultural and creative values, should work more closely together to build stronger ties in publishing.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-860cd46 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"860cd46\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-3b7611a e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"3b7611a\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-80b7887 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"80b7887\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/limassolbookfair.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/elementor\/thumbs\/Helene-Pasquet-rcqxw4c4pn9eevfbs4z7yargw5risnq23ced3az9kc.png\" title=\"He\u0301le\u0300ne Pasquet\" alt=\"He\u0301le\u0300ne Pasquet\" loading=\"lazy\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-bb90120 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"bb90120\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-b28a711 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"b28a711\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">H\u00e9l\u00e8ne Pasquet<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-edcce5c elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"edcce5c\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Editorial Director Fiction and BD, Bayard \u00c9ditions; Vice president, Children\u2019s book group, French Publishers Association (SNE)<\/p><p>A graduate in literature and economics, H\u00e9l\u00e8ne Pasquet worked a few years for Editis before taking charge of promoting French literature and intellectual debate at the French Embassy in Tunisia.
