Asiapac Books 35th Anniversary


Asiapac Books is celebrating our 35th Anniversary this year! To commemorate this event, we are giving our readers and supporters "behind the scenes" snapshots from our office. Keep a look out for new posts each week as we share the many treasures we have tucked away!


Here is the very first book we published in 1984 titled "Labour Pains" next to our 2017 release "Lieutenant Adnan and The Last Regiment"!

Artwork by: Zaki Ragman


Published in 1984, "Labour Pains" is a book that looks at the inequality of power between the sexes. It was illustrated during the late '70s and the artwork found in this book are good examples of illustration trends in the '70s and '80s.
