National Book Fair 2014, Bangalore :
Today morning I been to National Book Fair 2014, which is happening at
BEL Grounds, Jalahalli, here in Bangalore from 22.11.2014. tomorrow
30.11.2014 is the last day of this event.
Last year, Bangalore Book Festival which
used to happen at palace ground was canceled due to some problem. I was
really disappointed by that. because Bangalore Book Festival is the one
event that I love to be at. from 2009, I’m attending this event
regularly. but when it was cancelled last year, I was totally frustrated
because I was waiting for this event from a year.
So I was searching for information in
the internet for this years Bangalore Book Festival. as usual I didn’t
get any information regarding the event. so I thought The Event will not
happen this year also.
when I was reading the news paper, I
came to know about the National Book Fair that began on 22.11.14, where
we can get books of various languages. so I was excited and decided to
attend the event.
So Today morning I went there. It was
not as big as Bangalore Book Festival. Usually I purchase Tamil books in
book festivals, because this is the only opportunity to find other
language books of our choice. of course we can buy online, but online we
can’t get what we want. So I was searching for Tamil stores but I
found only two Tamil stores. one is Khizakku Padhippagam and one more is
Bharathi Puthakalayam.
I purchased the following Tamil Books
Khizakku Padhippagam store
1. Marina by Sujatha
2. Lajja by Taslima Nasrin
3. Rajeev Kolai Vazhakku by K.Ragothaman
4. Manidhanum Marmangalum by Madhan
5. Yudhargal: Varalaarum Vaazhkaiyum by Mukhil
Bharathi Puthakalayam store
1. Pudhumai Pitthan Kadhaigal
2. Tamilselvan Sirugadhaigal
3. Ayesha by Natarajan
while talking with the person in charge
of Khizakku Padhippagam store, he revealed a very important information
that I was searching in the net from past one year. that is about this
years Bangalore Book festival. He told me that, it is going to start from December 19, 2014
at Place Ground, Bangalore. I was very happy to know this news. I am
looking forward to attend the ‘Bangalore Book Festival 2014′.
The Government should encourage these
kind of events rather than avoiding them. one more important thing
regarding these kind of events is the low publicity. very few people
knew about Book Festivals. The organizers should promote the event more
aggressively so that people can notice that such an event is happening.
so that more people can come and buy books, to make the event
successful.
