Kolkata Book Fair Dedicates Largest Pavilion To France
The 42nd edition of International Kolkata Book Fair is dedicating its "largest-ever" theme pavilion of 14,000 sq.ft. to France, that is also the focal theme of the event rated as the world's most attended book fair, the organisers said on Friday.
Though the total space of this year's book fair has got reduced due to the change of venue, we have allotted 14,000 square ft to the French pavilion to celebrate 70 years of Indo-French diplomatic relationship.
"This will be the largest ever individual pavilion in the history of Kolkata Book Fair," IKBF General Secretary Tridib Chatterjee told reporters here.
Slated to be held from January 31 to February 11, the fair would have 580 book stalls, 20 less than its previous edition.
