Setting the Stage for the First Free Reading Zone

摘要

As already explained, the story of FREZ began in the United States, but that's not where it culminated. It culminated in Croatia, of all places, a small country in the southeast of Europe where I was born and where I lived until my teenage years, when I moved to the United States and eventually resettled in New York City. Croatia's capital of Zagreb, however, had always remained a home away from home. At the time that I was helping Total Boox build its digital portfolio, I found myself spending more time on the other side of the pond than I did in New York (for personal as well as professional reasons).
