29th Algiers Book Fair: Sustained public enthusiasm continues

The 29th Algiers International Book Fair is underway at the Pins Maritimes exhibition center until November 7. Featuring over 1,500 publishers from 51 countries, the event is hosted in a new 30,000-square-meter facility known as the "Palestine" pavilion. This space houses most of the 350 participating local and international publishers, offering a wide range of books including history, science, and literature. Visitor turnout has remained strong throughout the event, with a record surge on November 1st, commemorating the anniversary of the 1954 Revolution. Novel and historical works are proving to be the most popular, and autograph sessions have become major attractions for readers eager to connect with prominent authors.
