It was nice to visit the Kolkata book fair today . The traffic and ambience was pretty well managed . There was a surfeit of stalls though the major bias towards bengali books. It is a good forum for new poets/authors to make their presence felt. A lot of old books were being sold at discounted rates. The government has to a large extent supported the cause of the book fair to make it a success. Thanks to Kindle and various websites , I think English books have taken a beating as there are ways to access the same. The other attractions were of course the handicrafts , food and beverages stalls . Here's how the entrance looked like https://www.youtube.com/shorts/d3PrATS3YjY A shop screaming to sell at half the price https://www.youtube.com/shorts/yABhDzfH7QA
